Connecting pre-university students with professional science
Physics matters in the world. Students should know that!
This project does not provide linear curriculum coverage. It addresses core curriculum learning but allows wider-world scientific context to take the lead. Thus it not only shows the work of scientists, and its importance, but can be used for topic introduction, reinforcement and review.
There are links to external videos on every page; that is, for every topic. The videos have been selected for brevity as well as for relevance in creating contexts and indicating curriculum links.
