Writing a Physics laboratory worksheet, Inspired by Inquiry

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on creating a worksheet focused on Physics experiments in the classroom, emphasizing Inquiry Methods. The target audience is high school students in grades 9-12, particularly those in simpler courses not specifically designed for Physics or engineering majors. It is noted that the arrangement of laboratory worksheets is typically determined by the department or teacher for beginner levels, while upper-division students have more autonomy in organizing their data and summaries. Suggestions for resources, including websites, courses, and experts in the field, are sought to enhance the worksheet's effectiveness.

Hi, the task for me is writing a worksheet about Physics experiments in the classroom with a strong emphasis on Inquiry Methods. If you have any suggestion about it (web, courses, people in the field), I'd be very grateful to hear from you. In the meantime, have a safe day.

What level of study? Beginners like in the simpler courses (not designed for Physics, Science, Engineering major fields), department or teacher decides the exact arrangement of laboratory worksheets. More advanced courses like for upper division courses, the students decide on their own how to arrange their data and summaries and they also will design how to format this.
 
Physics, in High School grade 9-12, thanks
 
Okay, so this is something I have been thinking about for a long time, because it's something I am passionate about and something that has personally affected me - and that's the generally negative attitude that people take towards physics. I think it's fair to say that the secondary (Middle+ High) school that I go to is one of the most elite in the country - yet I am yet to see another person with a passion for physics. There are countless who have dedicated their life to Chemistry...
