Flexible Instructional Delivery Plan (FIDP)

Grade: 12 Semester: 1st Semester AY 2022-2023

Core Subject Title: General Physics 1 (PHYS 01/01L) No. of hours/semester: 80
Core Subject Description: Prerequisites (if needed): Algebra, Trigonometry, Basic Calculus
This course introduces STEM students the topics needed for university courses (Engineering, Sciences, Medical courses, etc.). This includes topics such as: mechanics of particles, rigid bodies, and
fluids; waves; and heat and thermodynamics. This would be achieved using the methods and concepts of algebra, geometry, trigonometry, graphical analysis and basic calculus to deliver the said topics.
The course consists of a 3-unit Lecture Subject (3 hours/week) and a separate 1-unit Laboratory Subject (3 hours/week). This Laboratory Subject would give enhancements to the theories learned from
the Lecture classes. Topics/exercises that could not be covered within the lecture hours would be addressed by modular courses.

Culminating Performance Standards: Students will be able to design and create mechanical models that would simulate actual mechanical operations such as those in production services in industries.
Furthermore, they should present a video-taped demonstration of their mechanical model.

Performance Task: To further understand how various physics theories/principles operate in a machine from a mechanical perspective, you will assume the role of a machine inventor. You are tasked to
design a mechanical model, Projectile Launcher & Rube Goldberg Device, and conduct a demonstration of it through classroom presentation showing evidence of different concepts in mechanics. The
goal is to understand the mechanical operations such as those involved in production services. Your output will be exhibited in a science fair attended by students (co-presenters), teachers, and some
experts from the machine industry. The quality of the performance will be graded based on the following criteria: (i) design and machine, (ii) simple machine display, (iii) task performance, (iv) mechanical
advantage, and (v) Rube Goldberg efficiency.
