Class experience
Beginner Level
Follows Teacher-Created Curriculum
Aligned with Advanced Placement (AP) Standards
This is a three session class designed to prepare students to excel in a future high school physics course. The class consist of three 90-minute face-to-face sessions and assigned Minds on Physics© game modules played outside of class. Minds on Physics© functions as homework for practice and assessments for feedback. Students and parents will receive weekly progress updates. Access to a one-year subscription for Minds on Physics© is provided for all students. Face-to-face, synchronous...
Part 2b: Advanced Force Concepts Big Idea: Forces influence the motion of an object. Inquiry Questions: How can forces change the motion of an object? How can Newton’s laws be used to explain changes in motion? Content: balanced and unbalanced forces in systems multi-body systems inclined planes angled forces Elevators
