Physics: Why Stuff Does Stuff
This website will provide you with resources to help you learn not just about what physics is, but to also learn how to actually do physics. This requires learning how to learn. And maybe a bit of unlearning. Physics may just be one of the most useful class you will ever take.

Physics 1 Class Expectations
Anyone can learn how to do physics, but it takes practice. So to be successful in this class you must...
1. Come to class with notebook, pencil/pen, and a calculator and stay awake
2. Work 5 to 10 practice problems every evening for at least 30 minutes
As you work more problems, they will become easier. It just takes practice.
