WSU Physics Videos
The primary idea of the project "Demonstrations in Physics" is to create videos of physics demonstrations recorded in a classroom environment comparable to actual lecture presentations made to students in physics courses. These movies have been designed so that they can be used by physics faculty at any institution. The videos can be used by faculty to supplement their own lectures and demonstrations through the showing of all or parts of these movies to the students. Also, the movies have been produced with the goal in mind that faculty could watch them and then reconstruct their own live demonstrations. The required equipment and supplies, in most cases, would likely be available in their own respective departments.
