About the Course

This first course serves as an introduction to the physics of electricity and magnetism. Upon completion, learners will understand how mathematical laws and conservation principles describe fields and how these fields are related to electrical circuits. Learners will gain experience in solving physics problems with tools such as graphical analysis, algebra, vector analysis, and calculus. This first course covers Charge, Electric Forces, and Electric Fields. Each of the three modules contains reading links to a free textbook, complete video lectures, conceptual quizzes, and a set of homework problems. Once the modules are completed, the course ends with an exam. This comprehensive course is similar in detail and rigor to those taught on-campus at Rice. It will thoroughly prepare learners for their upcoming introductory physics courses or more advanced courses in physics....

Professor Hafner is one of the best instructors i've ever had, from the explanations of derivations to the numerous demos and the occasional jokes, it has been a great experience.

Very useful course for a start after being out of college for 30 years! Liked the course delivery by Prof. Jason very much. Subscribing to further courses now.

Some technical issues with the homework submission parsing, and sometimes you said Micro Coulombs but used normal.

Course material is not really useful, rough lessons in chalk on a blackboard, very few exercises. You'll barely learn 2 formulas and 3 concepts. Forget this MOOC. Get a good book instead.

This is a very math heavy course!
