[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who doesn’t remember doing the egg drop project in their HS physics class? That was so fun. I forget the physics behind it though - something similar to how airbags work in collisions[/quote] Did not have the egg drop project. Also did not do the bridge-building project that is discussed in the book about Walt Whitman. I vaguely remember a lab involving electrical circuits, a few bad science jokes, and that's it. Also that our main curriculum resource was a Schaum's Outline. We learned and were tested on lots of equations that promptly drained out of my memory after the course ended. It was indeed like a math class. The teacher did not seem bad...he was competent and funny. This was an Honors class at a "good school" in a town where many fathers were engineers. Long enough ago that "engineer mothers" were not a recognizable population. Gen X. You are lucky to have had an interesting class.[/quote]
