Designed to supplement and strengthen student experiences while attending the large lecture physics courses.
Students work in groups on discovery learning exercises, assisted by undergraduate assistants (2.5 hours/week).
Activities include preparation for midterms, weekly quizzes, free body diagram problems, lecture reflections and group worksheets.
Co-seminar instructors are typically graduate students completing a PhD in PHYS and are involved in the physics education research on campus. They are very familiar with the course structure and the large lecture style of teaching.
