Interdisciplinary Sound Capture   Sound capture     Subject Biology, physics, computer science Level Lower and upper secondary Language English Type Individual work, exercise, experiment   The whole idea of this project was to make the link between biology and physics. As a biologist you want to make a study of a biotope but mostly you don’t register the sound of birds and animals. When you record that with an mp3 player then you can recognise some birds or the sound of other animals by visualizing it with an oscillo-scope. But that is not so easy for students in secondary school to use. Therefore the idea of doing that with some freeware programs in an investigation lab. Those who can use a computer in the class with some freeware which is on the cd and a headset can have the same results and even more…     Contact details   Name Marc Debusschere Email marc.debusschere@skynet.be       Last update: 17 July 2007 More Interdisciplinary Teaching Ideas  •  Satellites (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMJ1PXXV2F_0.html)  •  Physics and Magazines (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMVGQXXV2F_0.html)  •  Plants from Other Worlds (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMJWRXXV2F_0.html) Download  •  Sound Capture PDF (http://esamultimedia.esa.int/docs/scienceonstage/BE_Debusschere_Sound_capture.pdf)
