Course Purpose: Course Purpose: To Encourage Questions, Promote Critical Thinking, and Encourage Self-Advocacy:
The goal of this course is to encourage students to think critically about their surrounding world and environment. We want the students to ask “Why?” and “How?” This course focuses primarily on a strong foundation in physics concepts, and only after concepts are established will some basic math be introducedStudents will learn how to advocate for themselves and take ownership of their learning
Course TopicsCourse Topics This is a conceptually based course that
will incorporate mathematics skills based on concurrent enrollment
Mechanics Linear, Circular, & Projectile Motion Newton’s Laws Energy, Power, Momentum, &
Conservation Center of Gravity; Universal Gravitation Wave Motion Nature of Light, Color, and Sound
