General Physics
Physics is a laboratory course that examines the physical laws and principles that govern nature. The general areas that are studied are: motion, forces, energy, waves, optics, thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism and nuclear energy. The course will take these topics and not only provide information about them, but will also show how these topics are relevant for the student's life. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the concepts of physics and then to analyze the concepts mathematically. The problem solving skills developed in this course are transferable to many areas outside of physics. The Ohio Revised Science Standards and Model Curriculum High School doesn't cover all the concepts required for a college-prep level physics course. In order to meet the required for the college-prep level physics course, additional units are incorporated. Students are required to participate daily and an assignment is assigned daily.
Flipped Classroom/Blended/Modeled
I will be incorporating the best strategies that are scientific proven. I will flipped/blend and use modeling in the classroom that will encompasses any use of using internet technology to leverage the learning in the classroom, so I can spend more time interacting and modeling with the students instead of lecturing. This is most commonly being done using teacher created videos (aka vodcasting) that students view outside of class time and having the students present their models using a whiteboard method.
It is called the flipped class and modeling because the whole classroom/homework paradigm is "flipped". What used to be classwork (the "lecture") is done at home via teacher-created videos and what used to be homework (assigned problems) is now done in class.
This model is very affected if the student will view and interact with the blogs and video outside of the classroom.
