The PICUP Collection: Resources for integrating computation into undergraduate physics courses
ORAL · Invited
Abstract
The PICUP Collection (at www.compadre.org/PICUP/) provides peer-reviewed Exercise Sets of computational physics problems with instructor materials and solutions in a variety of computational languages from spreadsheets and vPython to Mathematica, MATLAB, C++, and Python. These materials have been submitted by a wide variety of physics instructors and cover concepts from introductory physics to upper-level physics, and include Exercise Sets that tie to experiments. You can download these materials and use them in your physics classes as they are, or modify them to suit your needs. I will highlight some of the resources that are available in the PICUP collection, and demonstrate how you can use these materials, and even contribute to the collection.
