Abstract
We present here a teaching and learning sequence on oscillations entirely based on
experiments and data logging techniques. The sequence has been proposed to three
different groups of students during curricular and extracurricular lessons. The purpose of
this paper is to discuss a way to introduce upper secondary school students to complicated
topics, such as those of coupled oscillations, avoiding the use of too much mathematics and
calculus, but with an intense use of data logging techniques
