GPIB and its application in physics education

Abstract

It is the aim of this paper to show that measurements can be made easier and more reliably through the General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) protocol. And by ensuring correct measurements, allow students to concentrate more on the analysis of the data obtained rather than on the proper conduct of the experiment. And by shifting the concentration of students to analyzing data, a better understanding of the physical concepts exhibited in the experiment can be attaned by the students.
