Phys 631, 632; summer courses Calculus - based course. Textbook: Haliday, Resnick, and Walker hour physics lecture/demonstrations. Use pedagogy that teachers can take into classroom. Numerous illustrations, overheads, notes, cartoons. Include JiTT with WebAssign and Physlets /2 hour recitations using best high school teachers. Live in dorms and tutor. Problem sets continue up to October using WebAssign. Four weekly quizzes in summer. Final exam in October. Make connections to other areas in science & real life.

Physics 633 – modern physics Distance learning course Use own textbook (with Andy Rex, 3 rd ed.) Homework and tests via WebAssign Average 3 mini-lectures per chapter Problem solving for each chapter Links to physlets, simulations Students must be independent Help through list serve

Physics 641 – physics pedagogy Distance learning course No lectures or exams 14 weekly assignments – Use Open Portfolio program nature of science laboratories (Real Time Physics) demonstrations (PTRA) technology in classroom Workshop Physics, Physics by Inquiry, Active Physics, Simulations, Physlets, Modeling Read Knight’s Five Easy Lessons, Arons’s Teaching Introductory Physics

MAPE Graduates

Reduce time for administrating the proctoring of exams and answering duplicative questions by . Make better use of chat room. Include audio/video. Incorporate experiments done at home. Double enrollment in distant learning courses. More cost effective. Eventually replace CDs with DVDs. Appeal to a broader group of teachers. Future Plans
