Screencast Video Instructions

The Minds On Physics Internet Modules (MOP) were intended to be easy to use. A Directions page is provided to help students quickly get started. And pages about Teacher Usage of the modules and Teacher Registration are provided to help teachers with the more complicated task of integrating MOP into their curriculum as a learning, assessment, and homework tool. All of these direction pages are accompanied by Sreencasts that demonstrate specific features of the program. Some of the screencasts are especially designed with students in mind. Others will be of interest to teachers who have purchased teacher accounts (or are considering the purchase of teacher accounts).
