Introductory Physics Courses and The Change to Semesters

ORAL

Abstract

Beginning in the autumn of 2012 the University of Cincinnati, as well as many other institutions in Ohio changed from a quarter (term) calendar to a semester calendar. At this time the state also initiated a TAG program that attempts to insure uniform courses throughout the state system of higher education. A report on how these changes in the two basic introductory Physics Courses (Calculus-based and algebra/Trigonometry based) at the University of Cincinnati will be given here.
