Integrated Physics and Chemistry

Post by mothermayi? » Sun Jan 11, 2015 3:16 am

Do you need the WG TM to get the most benefit from IPAC or does it follow the intended sequence from the publisher? IOW, can IPAC be fully utilized without the TM? What benefits are there to having the WG TM? Thanks!

The benefits of having the TM are that the labs aren't done in order or on any certain day. Carrie has planned them according to where they fit with the topics being studied. Some weeks they may have 2 labs, some 1 and a few weeks there aren't any labs. Also in order to get it done in a year there are many days where 2 lessons are done and yet some days only one lesson is done. There also are a few things in some of the experiments that Carrie lists as optional. So it is mostly a scheduling benefit.
