Science Dissemination Center of the Universidad Católica Santa Maria de la Antigua Panamá (USMA)
USMA has set up a physics Lab in order to show the primary pendulum to the outside for everyone on the USMA community to see. The primary pendulum is located inside the room and it is prepared with ethernet connection to enable this pendulum to connect to the Network of primary pendulums.
Vision
To become the main source of information and learning methodology on physics in Panama on behalf of instructors and students, using the pendulum as a technical tool to apply physics principles.
Mission
To promote the learning of physics using the pendulum as a technical tool throughout the country of panama for benefit of instructors and students.
The remote experiments that are going to take place on this SDC represents an evolution concept on digital education, since one of its main benefits are to promote a fast and simple access to experimentation and data acquisition of advance, complex, dangerous, and high-cost experiments, which tend to be inaccessible to smaller universities or other type of educational community.
