So then it's true? You can learn everything online for free? Well, I think you can get all of the physics content online for free—but you won't get the same thing as you get from going to college.

You've heard of Physics for Poets? This summer, San Jose State University is offering a new master class in physics for cartoonists. It's teaching animators how the real world works — even for ...

In the March 2014 issue of Physics World – a PDF copy of which you can download free of charge – we offer a snapshot of just some of the many innovative ideas that exist for learning and teaching ...

Machine learning is becoming an essential part of a physicist’s toolkit. How should new students learn to use it? When Radha Mastandrea started her undergraduate physics program at MIT in 2015, she ...

Parts of the brain not traditionally associated with learning science become active when people are confronted with solving physics problems, a new study shows. The researchers, led by Eric Brewe, PhD ...

Meanwhile, physics departments that are members of the Problem-Based Learning in Astronomy and Physics project – led by the University of Leicester – are fostering PBL with support from the Higher ...

The learning assistants are not expected to be experts so much as guides.” The learning assistants program is part of a broader shift in the teaching of physics at Smith. In recent years, the ...

Quantum Physics was a new way of thinking about physics. It seems there are parallels in the world of computer science.

Brain scans showed that students who took a hands-on approach to learning had activation in sensory and motor-related parts of the brain when they later thought about concepts such as angular momentum ...
