2. Keys to success: Attend class Don’t just show up Pay attention Take notes Participate in class discussion Ask questions http://www.myriadmusic.net/images/piano_keys_01.jpg http://www.hopechristianschool.org/linedrawings/elementary%20student%20in%20desk.gif
3. Treat school like a job http://www.eers.org/gallery/Job%20Evaluation%20Day%20Image.jpg http://www.myriadmusic.net/images/piano_keys_01.jpg
8. Physics How you will Learn Before Class: Review previous notes Read over old material Read new material During Class: TAKE NOTES! ASK QUESTIONS! ANSWER QUESTIONS! After Lecture: Use class time to start worksheets/homework. Ask for help Work together
9. Physics How to do well on evaluations: Quizzes: Open note-Bring your notes Labs: Read the introduction Take careful measurements Show your work Complete all parts of the lab Ask questions Tests: Review notes Study together Complete your homework before the due date Review quizzes and Labs Get help before school at lunch or after school
10. Physics What is If it living it is biology. If it is chemicals it is chemistry If it is rocks it is geology Physics is everything else and can be applied to biology, chemistry and geology, so….. Physics is the study of just about everything!
11. Physics Okay, you want a proper definition: Physics is the study of the interactions between matter and energy.
13. Mechanics: The study of motion Kinematics The mathematical description of motion 1-D and 2-D motion Dynamics The study of the forces that cause motion Newton’s Laws Energy Momentum Fluids http://www.journalism.missouri.edu/images/news/2004/detrick-rollercoaster.jpg
18. Thermodynamics Study of Heat transfer Temperature change Ideal Gas Laws Laws of Thermodynamics http://thumb2.visualizeus.com/thumbs/09/06/01/black,colour,hot,air,balloons,lights,night,reflection-0f57a1a6fc1912a988c7aea9b54f42e5_m.jpg
20. Homework Find a picture that you think is cool. Bring it in for a group activity. http://blogs.suntimes.com/cornerkicks/2009/04/
21.
22. In your group examine your pictures. Identify the areas of Physics illustrated in your pictures-each picture may have more than one area in it. Construct a Learning Map that includes: Each picture Each area of physics identified at least once
23. Grading of Learning Map Pretty points 15 pts Learning map is organized and easy to understand 25 pts Learning Map accurately identifies areas 25 pts Learning Map-1 pt for each area of physics identified at least once 25 pts Each picture will receive a grade of 1-5 based on the quality/creativity of the picture. (group average recorded) 5 pts Each group member brought in a picture 5 pts
