Program Implications: Having this course will enhance our science offerings at Nipissing. Our first year Physics course prerequisite is a grade 12 physics course. There are students who come to Nipissing without a Grade 12 Physics course. Having such a course will provide an opportunity for those students to take a course which provides a prerequisite for our 1st year Physics course.

C) Statement of NeedThe number of students who are taking the Grade 12 Physics course is in decline. Therefore if a student would like to take a university level Physics course and do not have the Grade 12U Physics requirement, this course will provide an opportunity to complete the Grade 12U Physics course requirement at Nipissing. Considering that we intend to offer the course on-line, it will be available province wide. This may be helpful to high school students not able to take 12U Physics in their own schools.

D) Statement of Resource RequirementsThe course will be offered online. Therefore, there will be an initial cost of setting up the course for online offering. We expect that the course will be taught by a part-time instructor through the Centre for Flexible Learning.
