This AAPT/PTRA teacher resource guide introduces teachers to a microcomputer-based laboratory (MBL) approach to teaching about Newton's second law, forces, and solving problems concerning force and motion. It is designed to help teachers develop the appropriate use of computers to help students build first a qualitative, conceptual understanding of Newton's second law and then a quantitative, problem solving understanding.
