GSCI 164. Physical Science: Learning Through Teaching [C3T2]


2.00
A hands-on conversation on how technology, science and engineering come together to describe our world. The course will cover many of the traditional concepts presented in an introductory physics course. The course will treat coordinate systems and their use in describing motion, forces and energy conservation, thermodynamics (temperature, pressure, heat), light (color, ray model, wave model), waves (sound), magnetism, and electricity. The course will indirectly reinforce skills developed in other courses in the package including scientific tools (mathematics, graphic, diagramming, experimenting, and analyzing data) and using informational resources. Corequisite: GSCI 163 .
