Physics 101 - DVDs

The Mechanics of God's Physical World Explore the fascinating science of physics and study the principles and laws that drive the natural world. With over eleven hours of information packed into four DVDs, this series presents everyone with a rich opportunity to study the clockwork of God's universe. Included on Disc D is a printable (digital PDF) guidebook with quizzes covering the material presented in each segment and a one-year high school course booklet. The guidebook allows the student to easily review all the information covered in the films. Each guidebook segment includes a multiple-choice quiz and discussion questions. Physics Made Simple! Physics can be a complicated subject, but that doesn't mean that it must be boring and impossible to understand. Veteran filmmaker Wes Olson will take you on a journey into the incredible universe created by God, from Newton's laws to the complex concepts behind quantum mechanics. Once you have finished this course, you will feel at ease discussing relativity, explaining the correlation between energy, mass, and the speed of light, and perhaps even Schrodinger's cat. From Our Homeschooling Family to Yours Physics 101 was developed and hosted by Wes Olson, Multnomah School of the Bible graduate (now Multnomah University), veteran filmmaker, and producer of the 101 series. Wes guides you through the science of physics; untangling and decoding complex terms and ideas into an organized and easy-to-use format. This DVD course will give your children a thorough overview of the world of Physics. What Does Physics 101 Contain?

Your Complete High School Level Physics Course? It depends—homeschooling families’ approaches to teaching and learning are far from cookie-cutter in design. For some families, this course— which is very comprehensive in scope—will be enough to provide a thorough grounding in Physics. Other families may prefer to use these courses as a starting point, one that provides their student with the correct foundation; an eye and mind-opening overview of physics, before beginning textbook study. A Course Accreditation Program, along with the Guidebook (digital PDF), is included for those who want this course to serve as the foundation of a full school year's Physics course. In either case, students will find the course captivating and informative. In fact, the entire family might enjoy watching each segment together and engaging in lively discussions about the material. Not Homeschooling? The 101 series is even more essential! If your children are in a public or private school, the 101 series will be essential viewing. These courses will provide a clear Christian context in which they can place all the information they are provided in their regular classes. They'll get the big picture that will help them correctly interpret what they are taught in school, and learn that education can be exciting, challenging, and fun. Teachers, too, will find these courses invaluable. Online Learning is Available! Don't have a DVD Player? Not to worry!
