Detailní popis

This course is designed as an interactive, 21st century course focusing on basic physics and chemistry. Topics include forces and motion, energy through waves, electricity and magnetism, the matter around us, chemical bonding and reactions.

Ever wonder why more massive objects require more force to move? Perhaps you have questioned how new substances are made or how energy is involved in changes in matter? These are some of the concepts students will be exploring in Physical Science. This course teaches the foundational concepts of physics and chemistry. Students will use scientific inquiry, interactive experiences, higher order thinking, collaborative projects, and virtual labs to build and demonstrate an understanding of physical and chemical phenomena enabling them to apply these principles to their everyday lives.

This course is designed to serve as a foundation for the study of the physical sciences. The utilization of scientific inquiry, web 2.0 tools, interactive experiences, higher order thinking, collaborative projects, real world application through labs and a variety of assessments all aid the student in ultimately demonstrating a vast understanding of the importance of the physical and chemical properties of the world around them; enabling them to apply these properties to their everyday lives.

Study materials (e-books, Discovery Education, etc. ...) for FLVS Global courses are INCLUDED in the price of the course.

My feedback for this course is a 100/100. It was fun and i have learned so much new things, facts, information and even working in an online labs! I have tried to study and write in English which helped me to open a new perspective on education. My favourite parts were lessons 1, 2, 5 and 6. I have enjoyed the whole experience I would recommend it to every person that wants to work on themselves. The biggest thank you belongs to Mr. Kala. He helped me whenever i needed and he understood every time when I needed to move a deadline of an assignment or just needed help with something. It all took a lots of hard work for me because mostly everything that was in this course was new to me and I didn’t know much about the topics in Czech so learning it in English was even harder for me. Thank you for this experience.

In the Physical Science Honors course, I have reviewed some information I have already learnt about in previous courses, and most importantly uncovered new facts about motion, electricity, waves, matter, chemical properties and reactions. I have enjoyed completing all the assignments, especially the online lab ones and the Engineering designs (the first one in particular). Throughout the school year, the information from this course has helped me in school in Science, Physics and Chemistry lessons, broadening my horizons in said topics. I also really enjoyed the Discussion-Based Assessment with my instructor Jaroslav Kala and all interactive/hands-on excercises in the course. I will definitely sign up to another CTM online course in the future."

I attended the course for the first time ever, and I was pretty satisfied. The option to submit assignments after the due date was very useful for me (and, I believe, for the other students as well). The curriculum was explained nicely, so I could understand everything easily. I was hoping for more online meetings because, honestly, I joined the course to improve my English. Even though there were only a few meetings, I think I learned a lot about physics and chemistry. I am glad I could attend the course, and there is a possibility that I will attend the course again next year.

The CTM course changed my attitude to learning and my schedule. It isn't near perfection, as it can be seen in my grades, almost every bad grade I got is because I missed the date. That was always my problem. I was never stupid, just lazy. But even if it may not be so obvious, now my laziness is better. But this course wasn't about psychology or something, it was about physics. I love physics, which is also why I did this course. I learned a lot of interesting relations between things I was interested in before, I finally understood things I always wanted to catch on. It was a good feeling knowing something before learning it from the course, but a better feeling understanding something new. The course is well written, just the animations are a little bit wobbly, but that doesn't matter because in the worst case, it is funny, it never bothers or makes it harder

I would like to say, that I really enjoyed this course. It was really a great experience and I learned a lot. I am thankful for my instructor, because he was really nice and I could contact him without any problem. I am satisfied with my final score, although I missed some lab reports.
