Physics Symposium: Advanced Instructional Strategies in Physical Science for High School
The Physics workshop provides a robust framework for educators to examine the fundamental laws governing the physical world, including motion, forces, energy, momentum, waves, electricity, modern physics concepts, as well as electromagnetism, wave phenomena, and modern physics. Through TEKS-aligned laboratory investigations and high-impact demonstrations, participants will bridge the gap between abstract mathematical models and physical reality. This experience will help their students build conceptual understanding, apply mathematical relationships, and communicate scientific ideas clearly.
