Teaching Materials
Positives
- Animations and mathematical equations are used to help explain concepts.
- Important vocabulary words are defined on the screen.
Additional Prerequisites
- Students should already have an understanding of work and heat.
- The video covers a lot of information very quickly. Teachers will need to pause the video periodically and replay portions to aid in student understanding.
Differentiation
- This video provides a way for students to see how advanced mathematical concepts like integral calculus are used in real-world applications.
- Challenge students to identify ways the first and second laws of thermodynamics are related to climate change.
- Consider pairing this resource with this video about heat pumps which connects the laws of thermodynamics to a potential climate change solution.
