PHY 184 - Concepts of Physical Science

Institution:

Albright College

Subject:

Description:

This is a course particularly focused on the needs of teachers in elementary and middle schools. The main focus of this course is to have the students learn by doing, that is, they will, in support of the lectures, carry out activities and demonstrations in various areas of the physical sciences. For each concept presented in the lecture class the students will carry out quantitative activities, which demonstrate the validity of the concept. They are required to keep a careful record of not only lecture notes but of their activities. Thus, at the end of the course each student will have produced a reference notebook of lesson plans, covering both theory and supporting activities/demonstrations, which are invaluable in teaching physical science in grades K through eight.
