Honors Principles of Physics

Course Description

           This Honors Physics Course is guided by the standards described in the Alabama State Course of Study for high school physics and emphasizes students doing science using a "Modeling" (approach developed with National Science Foundation support.) Evidence (collected on our program) indicates that students gain more science reasoning skills by taking this physics course first!
