+~~NOTOC~~
+====== Projects & Practices in Physics =======
+Projects & Practices in Physics is a transformed introductory calculus-based physics course that engages students in scientific practice through the use of modeling projects. Students work in groups to solve complex problems using analytical techniques as well as using [[http://www.vpython.org|computational modeling software]]. Instructors act as learning facilitators by encouraging students to discuss and debate physics concepts and problems-solving strategies.

+==== Instructional Materials ====
+{{wiki:folder-close.png?64 }} Instructional materials have been developed by members of [[http://www.pa.msu.edu/research/physics-education-lab|MSU's Physics Education Research Lab]] as well as faculty in MSU's [[http://pa.msu.edu/|Department of Physics and Astronomy]]. Materials are refined based on instructors' experiences, student feedback, and educational research conducted at MSU and elsewhere. Please send comments, feedback, and typos to [[user:caballero|Danny Caballero]].
