SCE510 Physics for Teachers

As science educators journey through their development as exemplary science education practitioners, it is important for them to investigate different models of instruction. This course is designed to develop the use of Physics First as an instructional strategy through use of the conceptual change model. The course will investigate the content of physics, and further develop the participant's instructional practice through conceptual change. Students will relate the use of Physics First, and the use of conceptual change, to their quest for best practice as an exemplary science educator. Prerequisite(s): None. 2-3 semester hours
