General Education Learning Outcomes (TBR Approved)

• Use Scientific principles to apply experimental techniques, make observational analyses, interpret experimental results, and draw logical conclusions.
• Describe the natural and/or physical world using basic scientific language and processes.
• Apply scientific principles to address problems or issues in the natural and/or physical world.

• Read a word problem and identify the unknown, all given information, and formulate a plan or strategy to arrive at a solution.
•  Solve mathematical equations algebraically for any stated variable in the equation.
• Use the calculator to perform complex operations, such as the quadratic formula, or solving systems of equations for two or more unknowns.
• Be able to define basic terminology used in second-semester physics, such as “voltage,” “current,” “electric and magnetic fields,” and “impedance.”
• Demonstrate an understanding of the laws of physics (such as Coulomb’s law) through the appropriate application of a specific law to the solution of applied physics problems.
