Force Diagrams Interactive Tutorial
The Force Diagrams Interactive Video Tutorial discusses force as a vector and explains how force diagrams are used to describe the magnitude and direction of the individual forces acting upon objects. The meaning of balanced and unbalanced forces is explained and illustrated. The video lesson answers the following questions:
- What is a force diagram?
- What type of information is communicated by a force diagram?
This is the interactive version of the Tutorial. The interactive version breaks the full-length video into shorter segments and intersperses questions between those segments. The subsequent flow of the video is influenced by the learner's repsonse to the question. This interactive format is intended to assess comprehension and promote learning through feedback and correction of false beliefs.
The Interactive version of our videos is currently in the Development and Testing stage. Our current efforts are focused on creating the video content. We hope to eventually splice the videos into short segments and include interactive questioning between the segments.
