Description:
Instructions on how to conduct simple sound bundling experiments (ear trumpet, megaphone). In this way, the students learn about the phenomena through playing.
By the way: Sound can be bundled or funnelled. In the hearing process, this function is carried out by pinna and ear canal.
Information and ideas:
• Observe the safety information in the instructions as well as the applicable safety guidelines for your school and discuss it with your students.
• The experiments on the bundling of sound show the students that sound is often funnelled or bundled when it is transmitted or perceived.
• The experiments can be done either in groups or as station training.
Relevant for teaching:
Acoustic phenomena
Sound/acoustics: parameters
Vibrations and waves
