Physics Plugged-In will encompass the following topics: Motion & Forces, Conservation of Energy & Momentum, Heat & Thermodynamics, Waves, Electrictiy & Magnetism.
This course will be designed using both the physical, traditional style course delivery along with developing a vitrual online learning community to enhance the traditional delivery style. In the physical environment, course content will be presented using lecture, videos, presentations, guest speakers, field trips, inquiry activities, mini-labs, group discussions, peer collaboration, and projects. Virtually, students will engage in accessing Moodle to acquire all course material, assessments, assignment submissions and grades. Students participate in vitural labs, simulations, Webquest, reflective journal activities, virtual field trips, podcasts, vodcast, online asynchronous discussion threads and forums, along with video conferencing to collaborate on projects.
