EDUT 5865 Effective Physics Instruction
FOUNDATIONS OF EFFECTIVE PHYSICS INSTRUCTION
What if physics class felt less like plugging numbers into equations and more like figuring out how the world actually works? In this course, you’ll learn to teach motion, forces, energy, and waves using phenomena, models, and real-world data so students actively make sense of physical systems. Grounded in NGSS and current research, this course highlights physics’ focus on fundamental laws, models, and predictive relationships, and how to make these ideas accessible to all learners. You’ll gain practical, classroom-ready strategies to connect multiple representations, address common misconceptions, use AI-generated datasets, and create safe, inclusive, and engaging lab experiences. Whether you’re new to physics or looking to refine your practice, this course will build your confidence and transform the way you approach physics instruction.
