Student Examples
 
           
 

    These student examples each have qualities that are required. Your work should demonstrate comprehension of the physical science concepts. The main idea in doing homework is to understanding of the many physical science concepts. How do you explain these ideas to someone else? How can you connect these concepts to the world around you? Can you draw a diagram to demonstrate your understanding of both the concept and the connections?

   
Diagram
If you can visualize the problem, the application or the concept then you will be able to express your understanding. Drawing a complete, clear and comprehensive diagram to explain a physical science concept will provide feedback in your effort to understand these new ideas.
Reasoning/Explanation
Your written explanation will demonstrate your understanding of the physical science concepts. The best way to understand these concepts is to practice saying it outloud with your classmates. Read the concept, say the concept, then write it down. Do not cut and paste. Do not write paragraphs. Structure your written knowledge in a way that demonstrates that you had to select certain information. What is the central idea? How can you relate sub ideas to the central idea? How can you relate the central idea to real world applications?
Solution/Mathematical Logic
Solve the problem using the new mathematical logic (equations) that you learned. Demonstrate that you understnd these equations. Show how to derive from first pricinciples the appropriate eqaution. Explain the process that led you to the solution.
