このクラスで学べること
Despite modern physics having a reputation of being very difficult to comprehend, this course first introduces, then dives deep into the subject in a manner accessible to middle and high school students. Students will have the opportunity to learn about general relativity, quantum mechanics, and string theory in a captivating and engaging environment. Throughout the 4 days of live classes, students will gain insight into recent discoveries and popular theories within the field of modern physics through unique and effective resources and discussions. Day 1: Forces, elementary particles, and general relativity Day 2: Wave-particle duality and Schrödinger's cat Day 3: Superstring Theory and the 11 dimensions in our universe Day 4: Other surprises in the quantum world and string theory's competitors This course is on specialized topics within modern physics. The course will stray away from complex mathematics to be more accessible to students of all mathematical levels. Throughout each of the lessons, students will gain confidence in skills that are applicable to all fields of science such as questioning, predicting, observing, analyzing graphs, inferring, and critical thinking. Students should meet the following prerequisites before registering for class: -can solve basic algebraic equations -has a basic understanding of units and scale -has a basic understanding of probability -can read and understand slopes of line graphs with a single dependent variable
学習到達目標
Students will learn the rules that govern our universe at both the smallest and the largest scales. They will be able to apply the information learned and their critical thinking skills to engage in rich discussions about the greatest mysteries of our universe. By the end of the course, students will have an understanding of:
-how mass, gravity, space, and time are all related
-the four major forces in our universe and how they are related to one another
-quantum physics to see and understand the world at a microscopic level
-attempts at finding a unified theory
-wave-particle duality in different contexts
-multiple dimensions and where they might be hiding
