| Title | Forces and Motion activity 1: Predicting speed and directions changes (Inquiry Based) |
| Description | This lab assumes that the students have done my Moving Man activity. The students will use the simulation to learn the goals through an inquiry approach. There is a Check Your Understanding page to do before the activity and there are clicker questions provided for after the activity. There is also a practice for Objective Test Taking Learning Goals: Students will be able to predict, qualitatively, how an external force will affect the speed and direction of an object's motion and explain why with the help of a free body diagram. |
