College Board Inquiry-Based Lab Investigations

In this inquiry-based model, students learn by engaging in the seven AP Science Practices that develop their experimental and reasoning skills. By engaging in the science practices students begin to see that the study of physics is much more than just learning about our physical world; it also requires practices that are “used to establish, extend, and refine that knowledge” over time. The science practices (CLICK HERE) enable students to make predictions of natural phenomena, develop and refine testable explanations, and use established lines of evidence and reasoning to support claims. There are a total of nine College Board AP Physics 1 labs.  Each of the nine are listed below and some of the labs contain supplementary materials.
