This is a project from the Illinois Math and Science Academy Chapter by April-Hope, Varun Pilla, and Will Getz. It uses the Measure activity by Arjun Sarwal.

We explained using measure and sounds. We used the scientific method to teach a simple experiment, noticing the effects different sounds had on the Measure Activity. We are currently editing the recording. We plan to add as many subtitles in as many languages as possible, so this video can be used to teach anywhere the XO is used to teach.

We hope to also experiment eventually with the activity using instruments and the same pitch, recording their sounds or noticing how Measure reacts to different instruments on the same pitch.
