Dan Fullerton RAPTOR, 1/14/12 Enhancing Physics Instruction Using APlusPhysics and RPE

Outline Evolution of APlusPhysics Regents Physics Essentials Using These Resources to Support In-Class Instruction Writing as Thinking Exam Preparation

Evolution APlusPhysics is a direct result of the question: “What can you do to help this student graduate?” Course notes, tutorials tailored to Regents Physics placed online. Interactive quizzes from a data bank of hundreds of Regents questions. Web resource for projects. Physics In Action Podcast

Tutorials / Projects / Quizzes

Enhancements Added discussion forums and blogs. AP students submit weekly blog posts. Regents students use forums for discourse / reports. Video recaps to highlight essential information and applications. More class time for inquiry, projects, group and individual work. Wiki (experimental).

Forums and Blogs

Regents Physics Essentials Student request to take website material and review packets and turn into a book. Gathered input from a number of local and not-quite-as-local physics teachers. “The best review book is one students will actually use.”

What’s Different About RPE? Concise & friendly tone Illustrations and diagrams Sample problems Included directly following material Full solutions in FSA format immediately following the question

RPE Sample Pages

RPE Successes E-book and PDF licensing becoming popular Request for deeper “Honors Physics” version: 12/15/11

Using APlusPhysics In-Class Students can watch video reviews independently. Tutorials and interactive quizzes are helpful “unit introduction” assignments. Discussion forums allow “post-and-reflect” sequences to happen automatically. Use of online resources allows for more efficient use of valuable class time. Activities and explorations Instructor assistance

Exam Prep Students take old exams as diagnostic tests. Self-assess the exams to highlight areas of strength and weakness. Use areas of strength and weakness to direct corrective actions. Review becomes a personalized, self-directed activity.
