of their sections served as the test group,while the other(s) were used as control. The control classes were taught without MLMsusing typical textbook reading assignments, and online homework through the textbookpublisher, Pearson. At Wentworth, the textbook, Pearson’s University Physics 14thedition by Young and Freedman, and the online system, MasteringPhysics, isstandardized throughout the department. In the test group, no in-class instruction waschanged, however the chosen MLM platform was deployed in addition to the textbookreading. In the fall of 2016, one professor was responsible for implementation in theEngineering Physics I course (mechanics), while the other was responsible forimplantation in the Engineering Physics II

Without additional evidence, it would seem a validconjecture that any student difficulties which exist concerning rectilinear motion would continue tobe carried forward, further compounded by the inherent two-dimensionality of rotation about astationary axis adding layers of complexity to an already murky understanding of that rectilinearmotion.

Becausenano-science and robotics are interdisciplinary research fields, these projects also often involvedstudents from other departments, particularly biology, chemistry, and industrial and engineering Page 25.1109.6technology. Besides what was required by the course, these students also wrote conferencepapers and presented their findings at the regional, national, and international conferences. Afew examples were: C.

transition between compressed liquid and superheated vapor. Any point on thisdiagram corresponds to a state, which can be determined by the two properties T and v. However,this state is also related to a group of other properties, such as pressure (P), internal energy,enthalpy and entropy (s). As there are six properties commonly associated with a state, one canconstruct up to C62 different diagrams. However, as P and T are two properties that can bemeasured easily, they are often considered as the primary properties. Just as in quantummechanics, P and T are associated with two complementary properties v and s, and the product ofeach pair has the dimension of specific energy.Thermodynamics problems often involve some processes, i.e., transitions of

assignment was utilized to allow students an opportunity to creatively expresstheir understanding of a particular topic(s) that had been discussed in class. This activity wasgiven near the end of the semester and in some ways served as a “capstone” project for thestudents. Students were allowed to select a topic(s) based on the course readings, class lecturesand discussions, any of the video segments, or topics brought up through the guest lectures. Inaddition, students were encouraged to consider the topic of their short paper as a springboard fortheir creative projects.Students were required to submit a proposal, in 250 words or less, that included an overview oftheir proposed project. Abstracts were submitted electronically through Blackboard. In

a refinement of strategiesthat experienced physics teachers have been teaching for decades and because it is optimized forthe types of problems traditionally found in physics textbooks. The prescriptions aim to steerstudents away from common novice approaches such as identifying the unknown and searchingfor an equation that contains it, or pattern matching based on superficial aspects of the physicalscenario.12, 15 Although details differ, the prescriptions generally consist of steps like these: 1. Using diagrams as needed, visualize and make sense of the physical situation conceptually/qualitatively. 2. Explicitly identity the relevant physics principles. 3. Using the insights from (1) and (2), write equation(s) that can be

This fact renders the cubic law as a simple extension of the traditional result.Some sample trajectories are displayed in Figs. 4 and 5 for (respectively) o 45 and 60 . Thetrajectory cases correspond to 1.5 , 1.0 , 0.5 , and 0.0 in each figure. Also, vo 10 m/s andg 9.81 m/s 2 were utilized to generate these particular results. These figures were created withthe chart-production capabilities available within an EXCEL® workbook. The solid and dashedcurves identify results generated with the approximate and exact solutions (respectively), but itwas not possible to obtain experimental results for a comparison with the exact and approximateresults, given the limitations imposed for
ongeometrical optics with a survey of wave optics. In order to compensate for the lack oflaboratory work, an optics project was introduced alongside class demos. Studentsbrowsed for possible topics for a couple of weeks and then proposed one based oninstructor’s feedback. The project concluded with a short presentation of the work infront of the class and a brief written report. In order to increase class interest in theproject, the presentation took the form of a competition and the winner(s) were chosen bythe class, who judged the presentations according to preset criteria. Student feedback wasrecorded and quantized, and the peer evaluation and feedback were returned to thepresenters. The winners received small prizes in recognition of their
