Overview of smartPhysics
1. Online PreLectures (animated lessons, completed before lecture)
2. Online CheckPoints (quizzes to check knowledge, completed before lecture)
3. Textbook (reference)
Anthony Pantziris Slide 8
How we’ll use smartPhysics
You will VIEW video PreLectures before class:
CONFRONT the concepts and principles
Anthony Pantziris Slide 9
How we’ll use smartPhysics
Next, you’ll complete a CheckPoint quiz before class:CHECK your understanding of the PreLecture
Anthony Pantziris Slide 10
How we’ll use smartPhysics
COME to Lecture!The lecture will be more INTERACTIVE
because of the work you’ve done before class
Anthony Pantziris Slide 11
Interactive Lectures (using computer projector)
Address questions and difficulties expressed by students from the prelectures and checkpoints
Work out examples
Use checkpoint questions plus others tosurvey class (“vote” with color-coded cards)
Lectures
Anthony Pantziris Slide 12
You should spend at least 3 hours on prelectures and homework for every lecture!
1. MAKE A GOOD EFFORT ON THE ONLINE ACTIVITIES. The last CheckPoint question is optional and is called “Lecture Thoughts.” I will study these before class and will adjust the lecture to your needs.
2. PARTICIPATE IN LECTURE. You will learn more (and have more fun) from an active setting in which you participate with the instructor and your peers to probe your understanding of the fundamental principles.
3. DO THE HOMEWORK THE RIGHT WAY!!! To truly understand physics you must practice solving problems. Work on the homework on your own as far as possible. Then go to your discussion section, to learn techniques on how to solve problems and ask for hints that will help you finish your assignment. If you still need help, go to the help lab. Peer instruction is very much encouraged at this point.
