Using "Quantum of Solace" and a Digital Whiteboard to Teach Physics in an Online Class

Yale School of Management

This summer Frank Robinson and Jared Rovny, with the help of staff from ODDOE, created an online version of Physics 101, or Movie Physics. In preparation for the class, all of the spring lectures were recorded (over 30 hours of material) and split into 5-20 minute chapters incorporated into the Canvas site. Each chapter was followed by a quiz to test understanding of each topic. During the summer session, students watched about 6 hours of recorded lectures each week and met synchronously with instructors three hours per week using the video conference software Zoom. In this presentation, Frank and Jared will show an excerpt from the summer class and follow with a live demonstration of the technologies involved
