This is a free online course aimed at secondary teachers and adult learners. It includes 3 components: written text arranged in units, short video segments, and interactive web modules. Topics include fundamental particles and interactions, gravity, and string theory. More advanced learners can explore quantum mechanics, manipulating light, and biophysics. A comprehensive Facilitator's Guide supports teachers with an overview of rapidly-advancing knowledge in subatomic-scale experimentation.
Current titles include: 1. The Basic Building Blocks of Matter 2. The Fundamental Interactions 3. Gravity 4. String Theory and Extra Dimensions 5. The Quantum World 6. Macroscopic Quantum Mechanics 7. Manipulating Light 8. Emergent Behavior in Quantum Matter 9. Biophysics 10. Dark Matter 11. Dark Energy Each chapter offers a professionally-produced educational video appropriate for undergraduate physics produced in association with the Harvard University Department of Physics. Each video explores with leading scientists a frontier area of physics. The DVD collection is available for purchase, along with a facilitator guide.
