Workshop Physics Activity Guide, 3rd Edition

Authors: Priscilla W. Laws, David P. Jackson, Brett J. Pearson

Activities include prediction, qualitative observation, explanation, equation derivation, mathematical modeling, quantitative experiments, and problem solving. The modules help students understand the basis of knowledge in physics as interplay between observations, experiments, definitions, and mathematical theory.

The inquiry-based activities in the modules give students the opportunity to work collaboratively to solve problems, while thinking critically to make predictions and observations. Students record, display, and analyze data, as well as develop mathematical models of physical phenomena. The design of many of the activities is based on the outcomes of physics education research.
