Balancing aims of designing a 4th year physics laboratory exercise

This project report is concerned about the design of a laboratory exercise for physics students. We chose to specify ourselves here with 4th year students that have already obtained some background knowledge from preceding fundamental courses. Our purpose is to analyse the teacher’s goals and how they can be realised with respect to each other. Some goals might counteract to others, leading to a conflict of interests and thus have to be wisely balanced [3]. Others might meet the limitations of material circumstances, just as time, money, equipment or manpower.
