Standard Deviants School Physics Super Pack DVD

Copyright 1998

Physics is one of the three basic natural sciences. It’s considered one of the most fun topics but also scares both teachers and students. By concentrating on the key concepts and presenting the material in an intriguing manner, Physics students are able to gain confidence in themselves and their ability to master this important science. Teachers can present the topics and can learn with the student if necessary.

Nine modules of DVD video content:

• Over 3 hours of high quality DVD recordings
• Clear presentations of concepts, formulas and how to solve problems
• Lively, quick-moving and entertaining
• Recorded on nine separate DVDs to make playback easy
