PHY411-2 : Physics II: mechanics II and properties of matter / Faculty of Applied Sciences

This course will interactively engage students cognitively and scientifically in areas of mechanics and basic fundamentals of material science for physics educators. Students will define concepts, state and explain laws and theories, make predictions as to the possible outcome of an event, perform investigations via simulations and laboratory exercises and verbally and in writing, discuss the results and relationships with peers and facilitators The designated lecture session is used to discuss results of investigations leading to its relation to the existing laws, principles or theories. Lecture sessions employ a mixture of lectures and active learning (self and peer discussions). The outcomes shall be assessed through a variety of tools which include the traditional paper examination, informal interviews and classroom engagement.
