Project
Project Description: The College of Wooster Physics Club performs a variety of outreach demonstrations which have, in a sense, become part of the Wooster community. Events include four different full-length outreach demos in forces and motion, air pressure, electricity and magnetism, and waves and optics. Members of the Physics Club visit local elementary schools once or twice a week to perform these demos to students in grade 2-6. The programs have developed a successful reputation, and teachers look forward to these events every year as an exciting opportunity for their students.
