Teaching Physics On-line vs.
Teaching Physics in-Class: Are they
really similar?
M. Mikhaiel
William Paterson University
Physics Department
Wayne, New Jersey
USA
Why Physics Courses Are Seldom Offered Online
Uncertainty about how to offer a
valid lab component with online courses
Difficulty moving outside the box of
the campus laboratory experience
Doubts that students can
independently perform lab work in nontraditional
places
Doubts that off-campus lab work
can be as effective as formal
laboratory work
Why Now Is the Time for Online Physics Course
Substantial declines in the cost of computer technology and
corresponding increases in computer ownership The continuing rise in
computer literacy among the general
population
The coming of age of highly computer-savvy generations
Improvement in and global dissemination of
access to high-speed broad band technology
Continuous improvements in the quality, features, and
user-friendliness of online learning-management
systems for both instructors and students
Dramatic declines in states’ and institutions’ financial recourses to
stock, staff, and maintain undergraduate
laboratory facilities
Increasing time, costs, and inconvenience
associated with commuting to a college
campus
In the following slides, I am going to show how I will conduct my On-Line physics teaching and how I compare my On-Line physics teaching
with my In-Class physics teaching.

Student Interaction by Using a Discussion Board- Three kinds of
discussion boards. One is for lecture, the second is for lab, and the
third is for personal interaction with the instructor.

My Future Outlook For an Online Physics Course
The road of learning different teaching
techniques can continue for ever and ever.
And my future outlook is to design a physics
textbook that has many digital tools such as
animations and summaries that can be
downloaded onto an MP3 player, iPod, and
iPhone audio or video.
Thank You
and…
