Ideas from Physics and Astronomy

Updated: May 13, 2020

Professor Cornelia Lang, Director of Undergraduate Studies in Physics and Astronomy, shared these tips and resources:

  • Combination of asynchronous lectures with synchronous “lab discussion” and “discussion” sections – Physics has developed a set of virtual labs where students rent/purchase a small measurement device and then do labs at home with a pre-lab discussion and real-time support led by a TA (we will be piloting this during Summer 2020)

  • Synchronous virtual lecture times with real-time demonstrations recorded in an empty classroom (appropriate for STEM disciplines with demonstrations equipment) – These recordings can be made available for students who don’t attend the live sessions. But these help to keep students on track. These have been used successfully in the pre-med Physics courses.

I found this article really helpful for summarizing where a lot of institutions are with fall planning. Many of the things that came up in our meeting here are echoed in this article:
