Many active learningmethodologies and cases are presented in the Classical Mechanics research, but there are fewreferences for Electromagnetism and Waves. Since 2013, the Physics course in MauaEngineering School has used an innovative method for teaching the concepts ofElectromagnetism and Waves in the Engineering Courses, which allows the student to gain adeeper understanding of Physics Concepts1.Characteristics of the developed projectAll projects were applied to all students in the basic cycle (2nd year of Engineering Course –Basic Physics) of the discipline Physics II (Electromagnetism and Waves) and were aimed atthe following:• using an

American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Fishing with Broken Net: Predicament in Teaching Introductory PhysicsAbstractThe algebra based Introductory Physics course is offered to all students majoring in Chemistry,Biology, and Technology. There has been extensive research on teaching this course over thepast five decades, and many people have investigated it from different aspects, such as theknowledge structure construction and procedural thinking in problem solving. From ourexperience in teaching this course, we find that there is another intrinsic issue that has attractedlittle attention.Newtonian Mechanics is an excellent topic for students to learn how to solve problems with asystematic knowledge base. However, for many students

Inother words, the novice instructor’s success at teaching mathematical sense-making came at acost. A third instructor, expert in emphasizing mathematical sense-making, showed that it ispossible to succeed at teaching mathematical sense-making without a significant trade-off inteaching traditional problem-solving. However, for instructors considering the adoption ofphysics/engineering education research-based instructional strategies, trade-offs must beacknowledged and tough choices must be made.IntroductionWhat instructional objectives in physics courses most help engineering students succeed in

Then a mini syllabus is suggested toinclude quantum mechanics in to our teaching physics to non- physics major students. A lessonplan that include the principals of photon emissions from semiconductor are briefly described ,followed by a short discussion of P – n Junction Photo Diodes and Light Emitting Diodes ,LED’s. Then the band structure of quantum well layers in a P – n structures and how theCarriers are confined to these Nano

In fact, this unit could addressboth math and physical science standards, as it involved modeling periodic phenomena withtrigonometric functions2 and using math representations to support a claim regardingrelationships among frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.5This particular paper documents the results of my unit when taught in a pre-calculus setting.Literature review Although the connections between music, physics, and engineering have beendocumented in literature, there are few settings where students have the opportunity
