Teaching Introductory Physics Arnold B. Arons
Publisher: Wiley

MAJOR RESPONSIBILITIES: Teach the equivalent of 10 contact hours per semester in both the algebra and calculus based introductory physics laboratories. Feb 1, 2012 - Omar Acosta looks forward to Dr. Have students find why it's important. Jun 29, 2013 - Previous incarnations of the course have essentially been watered-down versions of the introductory physics courses for pre-med and engineering students. This is a required course for physics majors only. This is a 2-year position with the possibility of renewal. May 7, 2014 - Eric Mazur has received numerous awards, including the Esther Hoffman Beller award from the Optical Society of America and the Millikan Medal from the American Association of Physics Teachers. Apr 23, 2009 - The third semester of the calculus-based introductory physics sequence. Only after, introduce the jargon. This position carries a teaching load equivalent to 12 contact hours per semester. Mazur is author or co-author of 283 scientific publications, 36 patents, and several books, including the Principles and Practice of Physics (2014), a book that presents a groundbreaking new approach to teaching introductory calculus-based physics. Jun 24, 2013 - SOCS-I: Teaching Introductory Physics 2.1-2.7. May 1, 2014 - Physics Department SUNY Cortland POSITION: Full time Lecturer in Physics. Mar 30, 2014 - VPython is an extension for Python to allow easy, "pythonic" 3D. Acosta especially enjoys how Patty uses funny examples and white board drawings to make his introductory physics class entertaining and engaging. This puts emphasis on the idea and not on the memorization of a word.
