Open Physics Education Modules for Non-Science Majors (OPEM)
Project will convert two existing half courses at Carleton University (PHYS 1905: ‘How Things Work: Physics in Everyday Life’ and PHYS 2903: ‘Physics and the Imagination’) into Open Physics Education Modules for Non-Science Majors.
Proposed open content modules for non-science students will be structured into eleven thematic topics:
- Transportation
- Sports
- Weather and climate
- Home electricity
- Sound and music
- Light and color
- Green energy
- Medical imaging
- The Galaxy and beyond
- Recent advances
- The cell phone.
