A Modeling Approach to Physics Instruction
(Video)

This video features Katelin Corbett and Evan Feldman, physics teachers at NEST+m in New York City. Corbett and Feldman plan their lessons together but present them – and use media such as video and interactive simulations – in very different ways. In the video, the two teachers discuss the benefits of using digital media in the classroom, model best practices, and share guidelines for effective use of media in the physics classroom. Their students also discuss how videos and interactive simulations help them to understand difficult concepts like Snell's Law and the index of refraction.

Discussion Questions

What are the different ways of integrating digital media into your lessons as described in the video?
Think about the ways you’ve used digital media (e.g., video, interactives, games, applets, etc.) in your classroom. How has this video made you think differently about your approach?
Which of the strategies employed in this video would work best in your classroom? What changes would you make to accommodate your students and tailor the lesson to your own teaching style?
