Abstract:
The main objective of this project is to fabricate a fitness equipment which serves to develop various muscle groups of the human body. We are trying to develop a product which is capable enough to replace the traditional fitness equipments with an equipment which serves the purpose of all the individual equipments at a very affordable price. As there is an increase in the energy consumption every year and the existence of energy crisis in today’s world, finding an innovative way to use non-conventional energy and to produce electricity is paramount. Many innovative alternate concepts are being worked on to achieve this. One such idea is to recover and use human effort produced in a gymnasium while working out. There are numerous products that generate electricity from machines like elliptical machines, gym cycles, etc., but none for cable and pulley machine. We are trying to generate power as much as possible from such equipments and store it, to run the gymnasium from the power produced from the equipment itself. Power generation can be made possible, as during a typical workout using the equipment, mechanical energy is produced. This mechanical energy is produced by the linear motion of weights. By converting this linear motion into rotary motion and by using a generator, power generation can be made possible and the produced power can be stored for future use. By incorporating this energy harvesting system into the fitness equipment that we are trying to fabricate, it helps even a common man become fit, healthy and contribute to energy harvesting at a relatively low cost.

Abstract:
Dr. Winkel, director of SIMIODE promotes using computer modeling to teach Differential Equations. Dr. Panoff, director of SHORDOR.COM promotes using computer modeling to unzipped student’s potential. I had a chance to attend both SIMIODE and SHORDOR workshops. I learned how to develop models that can be used in classroom and how to use models to teach classes. I used Dr. Winkel M and M model at all my classes. Different level students have different reports. I started using modeling to motivate student at all level classes. I used Dr. Panoff Have = Had + change model to inspire student working on undergraduate research in the topic of dynamic modeling of real-world cases. Since all students have different background. Dynamic modeling is the best way to encourage students working on interdisciplinary field. Differential Equations are the best way to describe the change of any phenomena. However differential equation is a spooky term for many students. If we use difference quotient that students learned in College Algebra to approximate derivative, then even lower level students can enjoy differential equation models. At this presentation, I will introduce some models that I used in my classes.

Abstract:
The study aimed to assess the use of algorithm approach in teaching physics for the purpose of proposing courses of action to maximize the utilization of the aforementioned approach in teaching and learning. Specifically, it determined the extent of utilization of algorithm approach in teaching physics and the problems met by the teacher-respondents in utilizing the approach. To maximize the utilization of algorithm approach in teaching physics, some courses of action were proposed.The descriptive type of research was used with the questionnaire as the main instrument in gathering data. Respondents of the study were 42 science teachers from Batangas National High School for the school year 2017-2018. The statistical tool used in the study was weighted mean. The study revealed that algorithm approach was utilized to a moderate extent in teaching topics in physics such as motion, waves, sounds, and light. Another finding showed that the teachers often met problems in using algorithm approach such as lack of seminars/trainings on algorithm approach, lack of critical and creative thinking ability of the students in solving the problems, unavailability of instructional materials in teaching physics concepts, differences in the students’ level of understanding, and lack of students’ interest in understanding physics concepts. Attending seminars/trainings related to the use of algorithm approach was proposed courses of action for maximum utilization of algorithm approach. Inasmuch as the proposed courses of action aimed to maximize the utilization of algorithm approach in teaching physics, one recommendation was to conduct seminars and trainings on algorithm approach to address the problems met in the utilization of this approach.
