Each group will be responsible for constructing materials for two lessons based on the existing materials and/or new materials they develop in NH. The existing materials include the student projects, the BBC CD-ROM, the Annenberg/CBP Energy Transformations Featuring the Bicycle videodisc and the Physics InfoMall CD-ROM.
The lesson content is required to stand alone in digital form...hence all analog video will need to be digitized, and print materials will need to be scanned, etc.etc.etc....so any physics related content must be included in the lesson. It can be written from scratch or borrowed from one of the sources.
This structure overlaps with the earlier structure suggested by Dave and Bill in the message in March. Bill is making up a list with the new structure numbers associated with each part of the previous messages.
I have assigned working group members as follows:
|
I-Bob, Ewa and SanJay |
|
II. Dave, Rajh (or Jim Toy?) and Chuck |
|
III. Doyle, Ton, and Bobbie |
|
IV. Dean, Helmut and Bill |
Please look over the existing resources for your assigned working area in advance of the NH meeting so you will be ready to start to work on your topic area immediately upon arrival in NH. We will be asking each group to make a report of the whole group on the lessons that they intend to work on about 2.5 hours after they first meet in NH as a group.
The objective of the Working Cycle meeting is to develop for distribution at least eight lessons based on the Scientific and Cultural Aspects of the Bicycle project. We recommend using the Learning Cycle model (attached) whenever appropriate.
We reviewed the student projects and made some preliminary decisions about which ones had sufficient merit for further development into lesson plans. There are significant differences in the amount of work that will be required to complete these lessons. While we make the following recommendations for lesson development, the list is open to further additions and modifications.
Material for Possible Lessons
a) Spokes or Disk? Choosing the Optimum Bicycle Wheel (file attached)
b) Collecting Kinematics Data Over Long Time Intervals. See http://planet.ipn.uni-kiel.de/projekte1999/braune/ (in German),
c) "How fast you can go on a bicycle?
