Additional Learning Tools and Resources
Student Resources
Watching a presentation is a passive activity. Getting information is important ... but its not the destination or end point. Now that you've watched the video, its time to do something with the information you've heard. It's time to act on it. The resources below provide an opportunity to do this. We encourage learners to solidify their learning through the use of one or more of the following resources.
Acceleration Concept Builder
A Concept Builder provides students with a gentle workout on a single topic. This one on Acceleration will systematically walk you through nearly all aspects of acceleration, providing feedback along the way. We highly recommend it.
Minds on Physics App#1: Missions KC4 and KC8 of Kinematic Concepts Module
For serious students of Physics, our Minds On Phyiscs apps will not disappoint. The program delivers carefully crafted questions that target single concepts in Physics and continues to deliver the questions until students demonstrate mastery. Missions KC4 and KC8 are on the topic of accelerationy.
Tutorial on Acceleration
If you're in need of a quick reference on the topic of acceleration, the Tutorial section of our website can deliver. Visit the 1D Kinematics Chapter and see the page on Acceleration in Lesson 1.
Calculator Pad: Kinematics Section
When it comes to topics that are math-related, the Calculator Pad is a go-to resource. You will find a large collection of problems on varied topics and of varied difficulty level. You will also find answers and audio-guided solutions. Problems #5-9 in this problem set will test your skill at using the Acceleration equation. Practice makes perfect!
