Don’t just read it. Reason it out.
Make a prediction, change a parameter, and explain what you see. Mathematics and computation are there when you want to go further.
Start the sample lesson- 01
Ask a question
Begin with a physical phenomenon and a reason to care.
- 02
Explore an idea
Link an explanation to a model you can manipulate.
- 03
Put it into practice
Test your understanding with feedback that explains why.
Resources
A place to go further.
A prerequisite refresher and a small computational companion for the sample lesson. Instructor notes and course readings will follow the final syllabus.
About this course
