Physical science is the branch of natural science that studies non-living systems, in contrast to life sciences. This course will provide students with an understanding of physics, chemistry, and earth science. Students will explore what makes Earth habitable, what the chemical nature of life is, and what basic fundamental physics principles are involved in motion and waves. By the end of this class, students will be able to identify basic scientific terminology and concepts in each area of physical science. Methods of data collection, measurements, analysis, and problem-solving are emphasized. The class time is split between the classroom and online work, some in an adaptive learning environment. Pre-requisite(s): None. Co-requisite(s): None. 5 quarter hours
