Teaching Advanced Physics
This website contains detailed ideas and resources for teaching physics to students aged 16โ19. The site aims to help those new to teaching this age group, and assumes only a limited access to equipment, resources, and advice from experienced colleagues. It is not intended to constrain the development of other equally valid approaches. The resources may be downloaded and adapted according to your own requirements.
