FizziQ - Science App

FizziQ

Complete User Guide - Experimental Science App

1. Introduction

1.1 What is FizziQ?

FizziQ transforms your smartphone or tablet into a true portable scientific laboratory. The app uses the many built-in sensors in your device to conduct physics, chemistry, and life and earth science experiments.

1.2 Who is FizziQ for?

1.3 App Philosophy

FizziQ is inspired by the scientific method:

1.4 Available Languages

FizziQ is available in 20 languages: French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Hungarian, Estonian, Romanian, Ukrainian, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, and Malagasy.

1.5 Safety Precautions

Using FizziQ to conduct scientific experiments requires following certain essential precautions.

Protect your device

  • Use an appropriate protective case
  • Do not expose the device to liquids or extreme temperatures
  • Securely attach the device during motion experiments
  • Do not subject the device to violent impacts

Protect others

Protect yourself

Liability disclaimer: The creators of the FizziQ app (Trapeze.digital) cannot be held responsible for any material or bodily damage that may result from using the app.

1.6 Recommendations for Using FizziQ in Class

1. Be confident

The FizziQ app was designed for students, and its interface is similar to other digital tools they use daily.

2. Put devices in airplane mode

FizziQ does not need Internet access to work. In airplane mode, students will not be distracted by notifications and messages.

3. Encourage group work

Group work allows students less familiar with digital tools to learn the app while benefiting from others' discoveries.

4. Let students familiarize themselves with the tool

During the first session, plan 10 to 15 minutes for students to familiarize themselves with the different features.

5. Choose an appropriate protocol

For your first session, choose a protocol that requires only one measuring instrument. You will find many examples at www.fizziq.org/protocoles.

6. Request a report

FizziQ allows students to easily create synthetic documents including graphs, text, photos, and tables.
