Elementary-Level

PHYS 1: Introduction to Physics (Pre: None, though R012 or equivalent is suggested)

This is a short learning project designed to provide the practical basis for future development in the study of physics. This not not a project to develop mastery of the facts of physics, rather it is designed to expose basic techniques for the discovery of facts. This project is only six lessons long:What is physics? How do we study physical systems? What can we learn from physical systems? How do we set up a physics laboratory? What are some projects to get started in physics? What are some open problems in physics?

Intermediate-Level

PHYS 10: Intermediate Mechanics (Pre: CORE 5)

This project is under development.
