Physics 20x | Introduction |
 |
Welcome to physics at Oregon State University. We are excited to share with you a look into the physical universe and provide a strong foundation of scientific analysis. This class aims to not only teach about the wonders of physics but also build skills essential for any scientist. The learning objectives of the course are centered around problem solving and critical thinking. You will learn to analyze systems through different representations that include using words, diagrams, math, and more to draw understanding of the physical world. While physics is not likely your focus, the lessons learned here will change the way you see the world, and ultimately make you a better scientist in your own field.
If you have not yet had a chance, watch the video below to get motivated for the term.
Why are we here?
The onboarding of this class will consist of reading through these Getting Started pages in the order presented, starting with this page. Each page will describe different aspects of the class and will direct you to pages of the syllabus. Once you have read through all the Getting Started pages, you will have also read through the entire syllabus. From there, you should see that to complete your work, the only place you need to reference is the course calendar, which has links to all study materials and assignments.
Check out the welcome video for a quick understanding of the BoxSand Course Webpages.
