Learning Skills and Work Habits

The development of learning skills and work habits is a key indicator of future success.  The following learning skills and work habits will be developed, assessed, and reported during this course:

1. Responsibility: fulfills responsibilities and commitments (e.g. accepts and acts on feedback)

2. Organization: manages time to complete tasks and achieve goals (e.g. meets goals, on time)

3. Independent work: uses class time appropriately to complete tasks (e.g. monitors own learning)

4. Collaboration: works with others, promotes critical thinking (e.g. provides feedback to peers)

5. Initiative: demonstrates curiosity and an interest in learning (e.g. sets high goals)

6. Self-Regulation: sets goals, monitors progress towards achieving goals (e.g. sets, reflects goals)

This course enables students to deepen their understanding of physics concepts and theories. Students will continue their exploration of energy transformations and the forces that affect motion, and will investigate electrical, gravitational, and magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation. Students will also explore the wave nature of light, quantum mechanics, and special relativity. They will further develop their scientific investigation skills, learning, for example, how to analyse, qualitatively and quantitatively, data related to a variety of physics concepts and principles. Students will also consider the impact of technological applications of physics on society and the environment.
