Science Joy Wagon and the Ithaca City School District offer the Physics Zone Web site as a resource for algebra-based physics courses. Numerous interactive lessons, simulations, descriptions, and other online learning material are categorized into nine subjects including motion; forces; work and energy; momentum; electricity and magnetism; waves, light, and sound; modern physics; and nuclear physics.
pay to access?
Author: Dave Cross Shouldn't Compadre be promoting the free distribution of information. I do not charge for the ideas and items on my site - I sure as hell have no intention of paying others for a bunch or rehashed ideas they found elsewhere.

Re: pay to access?
Author: swirt The Physics Zone does not charge for ideas, I charge for animations that take weeks to create and the hundreds of dollars in bandwidth costs. When you have a multimedia intensive site, bandwidth is not cheap. The Physics Zone is a very popular site and the bandwidth charges were in triple digits per month. I could no longer afford to offer free access (it was free for 7 years).

Post a new comment on this item This resource is part of 3 Physics Front Topical Units.
Topic: Measurement and the Language of Physics
Unit Title: For the New Teacher This site is designed to be a resource for learning introductory level, algebra based, physics. Lessons and review are organized by topic. The collection features an especially robust section on Units, Measurement, Significant Figures, and use of measurement tools. A $5.00 annual fee gives teachers access to additional simulations, many of which have been rewritten to HTML5. Link to Unit:
Topic: Measurement and the Language of Physics
Unit Title: For the New Teacher This is a comprehensive set of tutorials for learning algebra-based introductory physics, organized by topic. It could be quite useful for students who need extra help or for crossover teachers seeking content support. A $5.00 annual feel gives access to additional simulations and resources. Links to Units:
