Physics Fun: Overview of the "Big Five" Kinematic Equations
Get familiar with the "Big Five" formulas for motion in basic physics, involving combinations of velocity, acceleration, time, and position. This class will cover the equations, their derivations, and their applications.

Description
Class Experience
Let's take a look at the kinematic equations, a set of formulas designed to help us figure out the basic physics of linear motion in a large number of situations. Along with slides for each equation, we will use Desmos and application problems to work out how these equations derived and their uses. While much of the class will be lecture-style, especially in deriving the equations, I will also be prompting students to contribute by helping us all decide which equations are appropriate for...
Students will become familiar with the standard five kinematic equations often taught in high school and college physics courses. Students will be invited to problem-solve together with the teacher to work out solutions to basic physics problems.
I'm a professional math, philosophy, logic, and language tutor, writer, and super-learning advocate. I am certified through the Praxis II (5161) exam to teach high school mathematics (pre-algebra through calculus), but my range of subjects has included ACT/SAT test prep, college-level mathematics, science, logic, languages, and philosophy. As of March of 2019, I have had over 1000 registered tutoring hours on top of 3+ years of experience teaching in the classroom. This background, coupled with my bent for lifelong learning, has given me a knack for finding and rounding out students' weak spots and boosting their confidence in themselves. I've helped many students find the joy in learning math, language, and philosophy by helping them "crack the code" and dissolve the illusion so often impressed on us that everything about these subjects is difficult, complicated, or even impenetrable. It's not. See my Teacher Bio below for details.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Check for understanding (CFUs) will be given throughout the lesson, as well as at the end of the lesson (titled "Mastery Check") to review material and test for general comprehension.
55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
