This is the wiki-homepage of the Illinois Math and Science Academy Chapter. We are similar to a University Chapter; however, we are a high school in Aurora, Illinois.

XOs on campus

There are currently 2 XOs on IMSA's campus, but more are coming with the mid-January order. If you are interested in playing with a machine, contact April-Hope or Scott Swanson. You can also just come up to ITS (CNS) sometime during the day, usually before 4 or 4:30.

  • 1 machine with Scott, owned by Scott
  • 1 machine with IMSA, floating around campus. Ask up in ITS for it.

Projects

Currently, we are working on a few separate experiments during our intercession period (week of January 7-11). (More to come tomorrow)

Current tasklist

  • Work with the Measure Activity Notes:
   *   instruments--what they actually sound like, using a microphone to record to the xo
   * sodexho
   * measuring the tamtam sounds in the tammicrophone
   * measuring sounds with a tone generator or a tuner--ask dr. p
