Einsatz von Hilfsmitteln zur Versuchsvorbereitung und Protokollierung im Anf\"angerpraktikum Physik

TL;DR

This study investigates how auxiliary materials for experiment preparation and protocol writing influence students' success in an early physics lab course, including both physics majors and minors.

Contribution

It provides empirical evidence on the impact of preparatory and documentation aids on student success in an introductory physics lab.

Findings

Use of auxiliary materials improves pass rates.

Materials benefit both physics majors and minors.

Enhanced preparation correlates with better lab performance.

Abstract

The Beginners Lab Course in Physics is scheduled very early in the course of studies not only for students of physics but also for students for which physics is a minor subject. We provide all partipants with several auxilliary materials for the preparation of the experiments and for writing a protocol. In our study, we enlighten the effect of the usage of these materials on the success of passing the lab course. ----- Das Anf\"angerpraktikum Physik ist eine fr\"uh im Studienverlauf stattfindende Veranstaltung sowohl f\"ur Hauptfachstudierende Physik, alsauch f\"ur Studierende mit Nebenfach Physik. Die vorliegende Untersuchung beleuchtet den Effekt der Verwendung von Hilfsmitteln zur Versuchsvorbereitung und Protokollierung auf das erfolgreiche Bestehen des Praktikums.
