Content: This book presents more than 70 physics experiments from iPhysicsLabs-column of the Journal The Physics Teacher. The articles are aimed at physics lecturers, trainee teachers and teachers who want to take their classes to the next level using digital devices. The experiments can easily be performed and analyzed using smartphones or tablets. The topics span from mechanics, optics, thermodynamics, astrophysics and astronomy to acoustics, electrodynamics and electronics. Authors worldwide have contributed to this series of articles. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of iPhysicsLabs, Jochen Kuhn and Patrik Vogt have collected more than 70 most popular and interesting articles for this book. The authors/editors Prof. Dr. Jochen Kuhn is a university professor and head of the Physics Education Research Group at the TU Kaiserslautern, Germany. His research focuses on learning with multiple representations in multimedia learning environments in physics and process-based analysis methods - such as eye-tracking analyses in learning and problem solving. Dr. Patrik Vogt studied physics and mathematics on a teaching degree at the University of Koblenz-Landau and was a research assistant and secondary school teacher at various schools and universities in Germany until 2019. Since 2019 he is head of the department "Media Education Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Music, Philosophy" at the ILF in Mainz, Germany.
