The Laws of Physics

“Many people suffer unnecessarily in physics, just as they do in math. I liked that the department recognized that and was taking steps to change it.” – Benjamin Nesselrodt, ’19, Learning Fellow in PHYS 13

In winter term, Professor Robyn Millan in the Department of Physics restructured the format of PHYS 13, an introductory course on the fundamentals of physics. She designed new problem sets and small group activities, then worked with Learning Fellows Ben Nesselrodt, Krishan Canzius, and Christopher Yu to implement these learning strategies in the classroom. Read more about their great work in Elli Goudzwaard’s new article: “The Fundamental Laws of Physics Classes!”
