Comments about Arbor Scientific Understanding Car Crashes: It's Basic Physics DVD:

I use this video and the supporting workbook/teacher's edition packet with students from 8th grade through high school physics. The viewers all sit riveted to the program, and the worksheets are student ready and entertaining. This is actually the third set of these materials that I have purchased...the other two were never returned to me after another teacher borrowed them. That's the sign of a great product---it's so useful that everyone wants to keep it for themselves!

Extremely interesting and engaging
By mattVerified Reviewer from St. Louis, MO on 9/27/2006
Pros:
Durable, Good Value, High Quality
Best Uses:
Brings concepts to life

Comments about Arbor Scientific Understanding Car Crashes: It's Basic Physics DVD:

Very helpful to show after discussing inertia, motion, acceleration, etc. to grades 8-12. Younger students won't understand everything, but it will still be engaging for them.
A must have for the physical science or physics classroom.

A Wonderful Way to Review Mechanics!
By Paul Robinson from San Mateo, CA on 9/26/2006
Pros:
Good Value, High Quality
Best Uses:
Great for review

Comments about Arbor Scientific Understanding Car Crashes: It's Basic Physics DVD:

Few topics capture student attention as much as driving a car. This is a great way to review the ideas of inertia, momentum, and energy. Video dramatically shows the effects of crashes on vehicles tastefully but forcefully. Students love it!

 
Good for the UK as well !
By Tim from UK on 9/26/2006
Pros:
Good pace, Good Value
Best Uses:
Years 11,12 UK Physics

Comments about Arbor Scientific Understanding Car Crashes: It's Basic Physics DVD:

Bought this for Physics lessons in my UK classes. It is good to see that the language of the subject is truly universal, even if some of the other language sounds different - this very difference should intrigue my students.
