Ohio Modelpalooza 2018
February 10, 2018 – New Albany High School
Joint meeting:
Ohio Science Modeling teachers & friends
Southern Ohio Section, American Association of Physics Teachers
The SOS-AAPT board will meet from 7:45 to 8:15 in E 203. All are welcome to attend.
Check in, refreshments, and general mingling will be available starting slightly after 8:00 am.
8:30 – 8:45 Welcome and Logistics of the Day: Jefferson Room
8:45 – 9:30 Keynote, sponsored by SOS AAPT: “Modifying Curriculum: Making Modeling Work for Your Students” : Jefferson Room
Casey Rutherford, Shakopee High School
Abstract: The Modeling Instruction curriculum is research based and a fantastic resource for teachers employing Modeling Instruction in their classrooms. It is, however, a one-size-fits-all curriculum, and not all physics courses benefit from using the materials as-is. This talk will address modifying and creating resources, activities, and labs for use in modeling instruction classrooms from 9th grade physics first to AP Physics C.
