Just finished the AP Institute at Mahopac, NY. Good stuff! AP Physics 1 is a completely different class than the honors course I was teaching. This new course will be much more accessible for students with lesser math skills. My school agreed with me and dropped the Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry co-requisite and we are now moving some underclassmen from Academic Physics.
Which textbook do some of you plan to use this fall? I realize the textbook plays lesser role in this course, but I would like to have a resource available. We have used Giancoli for the last 8 or 9 years for the Honors Physics.
