“Physics Girl” Dianna Cowern has started a new online series of 20 explanatory videos dedicated to AP Physics 1 topics (mainly mechanics). So far her series seems fun, stunningly enthusiastic (she speaks quickly but there is closed captioning), and enjoyable with many exciting video examples, though a little scattered and definitely traditional-expository (you watch Dianna work physics problems, show cool video examples, and wax enthusiastic). She could include units more frequently in her plots and calculations as well. I’m expecting this new series will be a smash hit for informing our students (who are now watching the “Free-Body Diagram” video), and given the quality of Cowern’s previous work this seems likely. I have added this to my other video series link to The Mechanical Universe as suggested video watching for my online freshman mechanics course this semester.
