Description
Teaching Projectile Motion?
Using this resource allows students to learn projectile motion with the goal of "programming" a robot to the appropriate specifications to score a basket by shooting a basketball from the free throw line. Using this guide, students will build upon their knowledge of kinematics and trigonometry to "perfect the code" of their robot.
After completing this resource, students will be able to:
- Define the variables of motion in vertical and horizontal directions
- Solve for the initial horizontal and vertical velocities.
- Justify explanations for how changing certain variables affects trajectory of the object.
- Manipulate variables for desired outcome.
Now with a PowerPoint Guide!
Teaching through the guide just got a lot easier with the new included PowerPoint. You can use the PowerPoint for asynchronous learning or as you guide the students through the class. The PowerPoint is Editable to best suit your needs, but is useful right out of the box!
Why Inquiry?
Telling students what's right skips over the process where learning occurs. Allowing students to formulate questions and predictions is where learning happens. Learning is beyond memorization of facts and includes how to apply such facts to many scenarios. These products are designed to grant the student more involvement in their learning while the teacher guides the students in the proper direction.
