Physics and Concepts Topic Outline Course Description and Philosophy Physics is the study of matter and energy. After a year of Physics one should have a basic idea of how objects interact with one another. Physicists used to be referred to as natural philosophers; therefore, after studying Physics one will have a better understanding of the laws that govern our universe and everything around us. Physics and Concepts will be divided into five units. To understand our universe one needs to study mechanics, the properties of matter, heat, sound and light, and electricity and magnetism. Physics and Concepts is a course that goes over the basic concepts of Physics, backing up the concepts with some basic algebra. It is designed for the student that may or may not attend a four-year college, but still wishes to have a challenge in their high school career. Any student may take this class regardless of mathematical ability. Evaluation will be mixed. It will consist of homework, quizzes, and tests. Another important evaluation tool will be laboratory exercises. Since we are studying how things interact with each other, what better way than to actually see it. The labs are all hands on and let the student manipulate many variables to see just how the laws of Physics work. Finally, there will be projects that allow the student to go beyond the classroom and apply their knowledge to everyday problems.
