Level 2 Physics
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr A. Reddy.
Through demonstrations and experiments, students will experience physical events in the real world and describe mathematical relationships between different variables. The entire course is supported by PowerPoint presentations and computer animations aid understanding by allowing complex concepts to be visualised. Course workbooks are used to improve problem solving skills and test the application of theory to real life contexts. Videos, research and class discussions further enhance the students understanding and enjoyment of the course.
Important pre-requisite for most science, engineering, technology, medicine, electrical, aviation, applied geology, energy management, oceanography, etc.
