This course is a full-year of Physics in eight weeks and provides an integrated, algebra-based survey of topics in high school physics. Students explore principles of Newtonian mechanics, energy, waves, sound, and simple circuits through inquiry-based and conceptual investigations. Skills are developed through the use of modeling, graphing, diagramming, symbolic algebra, and data analysis. Laboratory exercises are used to enhance the investigation of each topic and technical writing is developed to communicate experimental work. Developing the ability to reason qualitatively and quantitatively through the lens of real-world application is the principal focus.

Summer Courses

Summer courses are for-credit opportunities for ambitious students to get a jump on the next academic year. Students participating in these courses should plan to devote 20 hours per week for eight weeks to their course. Students will receive grades and comments in these classes, which are the equivalent of year-long, high-school level courses. Because of the pacing and intensity of for-credit summer courses, there is little flexibility; students must be available and have internet access for all eight weeks of the course.
