Marine Science

As our amazing planet continues to change over time, it becomes increasingly more apparent how human activity has made environmental impacts. In the ma- rine science course, you will delve deep into Earth’s bodies of water and study geologic structures and how they impact the oceans. You will investigate charac- teristics of various populations, patterns of distribution of life in our aquatic sys- tems and ongoing changes occurring everyday in our precious ecosystems.

You will be amazed and enlightened at just how much our oceans and lakes af- fect climate, weather, and seasonal variations. You will have the opportunity to explore the relationships among living organisms and see how they are affected by our oceans currents, tides, and waves. Hold on, it is one amazing journey.

Physics

The goal of physics is to describe the physical world using a small number of ba- sic assumptions, concepts, and equations. In this course, emphasis is placed on relating physics to the everyday world. Students explore the concepts involved with motion in one- and two-dimensions, forces, work and energy, momentum and collisions, circular motion and gravitation. They recognize the importance of the laws of thermodynamics. Students learn the characteristics of waves and de- scribe the behavior of waves with emphasis on light and sound. They understand the relationship between electricity and magnetism. Finally, the students gain a simple understanding of atomic physics.

Approximately 40% of the course involves virtual laboratory investigations. Some activities will require ordinary household items such as rulers, meter sticks, balls or marbles, string, paper and pencils.

Prerequisites: Successful completion of Algebra II, Geometry also recommended
