| Description: |
ADDventures
in Physics aims at improving high school physics teaching
through reaching students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD). A proposed hands-on, conceptual physics
curriculum provides the necessary key elements essential
in captivating and maintaining student interest in
physics and science in general. These necessary curriculum
modifications include variety, movement, immediate
feedback, kinesthetic activities, and visual emphasis.
The program is intended to serve as a model for other
physics programs seeking innovative ways to reach
ADHD students and increase student participation in
physics. |
