Foundations in Student-Centered, Models-Based High School Physics

Open to: Physics Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: During this workshop we will focus on fundamental physics mechanics concepts including kinematics (constant velocity and uniform acceleration), dynamics (Newton’s Laws), circular motion, and the conserved quantities momentum and energy.  The models we will navigate are comprised of descriptive, diagrammatic, graphical, and algebraic representations, which are developed through observation, experimentation, and reflection, and “deployed” through prediction and verification.

The constructivist process we will explore encourages student teamwork and active, productive discussion, not just with the teacher, but with fellow classmates.

Key dates:  Wednesday July 5 – Tuesday 11 from 9:00a.m. – 3:00p.m.
