Technology Enabled Active Learning (TEAL) is a project led by Prof. John Belcher and Dr. Peter Dourmashkin in 2002 to transform the traditional learning experience for introductory physics students. This recorded video allows you to view the TEAL room structure as well as how it is being used in action.

| In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore the phenomena of balance and center of gravity using simple, everyday materials. We’ll use this shared learning experience to discuss the role of open-ended inquiry and providing students to develop conceptual understanding of some of the basic principles that govern mechanics and many physical systems. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
