Fizzics Fizzle is a comprehensive guide to understanding the world of physics. It offers content on three difficulty levels: Beginner - for students who have never been exposed to the world of physics before (appropriate for elementary or junior high school/middle school students); requires no math; Intermediate - covers the physics curriculum generally taught in high schools across the United States; requires algebra and basic trigonometry and Advanced - covers the physics curriculum generally taught in introductory college physics classes and high school Advanced Placement Physics C classes; requires basic calculus.

Fossil Hominids

These web pages are intended to refute creationist claims that there is no evidence for human evolution. To do this, it is first necessary to summarize the current thinking about human evolution and the fossil evidence supporting it. If you are not interested in creationism, you can read only those pages. If you are only interested in creationism, you can skip to the pages on creationist arguments; they will contain links to the fossils under discussion when necessary.

How to Use Movie Physics in the Classroom

Hollywood sometimes defies the laws of physics - movie physics can provide a bonanza of enrichment activities for both high school physics students and first year physics students in college. These generally require nothing more than a VCR and stopwatch. Some movie scenes provide examples of good physics and others bad physics but all can be analyzed and used as topics of discussion.

In October 1996 a new museum was opened at this key historical location, a fitting monument to its evolutionary significance. The museum, which is operated by the Neanderthal Museum Foundation, could never have been built without the support of two powerful sponsors: the Nordrhein-Westfalen-Stiftung Naturschutz, Heimat- und Kulturpflege (North Rhine-Westphalian Foundation for Conservation, Preservation and Culture) - and the energy and telecommunications provider RWE. In agreeing to act as patron to the Neanderthal Museum Foundation, Mettmann District Council is pursuing its aim of maintaining and popularizing the cultural heritage of the Neanderthal valley and all it signifies.
