My tests would still look like those dry word problems, right?

I’m afraid the lesson plan at this point is just the series of questions I include on each page. At some point I may update those with more teacher notes but not in the near future.

I am able to download the videos and use them but I am not able to read or download the lesson plans. I am sure I am missing some important points that could help my students and/or steer them in different directions.

Any suggestions on how to view the lesson plans also?

Thanks so much!

I’m interested in using your model to have 9th grade physics students calculate the speed of light using video from this Ted talk:

I’m contacting Mr. Raskar or someone affiliated with the project to get more information.

What do you think: am I on the right track? Do you have any feedback or guidance to help me make this successful?
