Laws Workshop Physics Activity Guide, 3^rd Edition

Units use mathematical modeling of real-world events to engage students.

Help students understand the basis of knowledge in physics as interplay between observations, experiments, definitions, and mathematical theory. Students will experience and practice:

• Prediction
• Qualitative observation
• Explanation
• Equation derivation
• Mathematical modeling
• Quantitative experiments
• Problem solving
