It's certainly not impossible to learn about Newton's laws, momentum and other key principles of physics without multimedia learning activities, but it's a bit more fun to have such resources on hand. With funding from The Australian Learning and Teaching Council, Professor Joe Wolfe of The University of New South Wales has created this rather remarkable set of physics teaching resources. Visitors can make their way through these "physclips" by clicking on sections that include "Centre of Mass", "Circular Motion", "Gravity", and eight others. Each section includes learning modules with video clips that demonstrate different principles, along with links to other relevant background materials. The organization of the entire site is quite impressive, and visitors can also download each video clip for use in their own classroom.
