Narrated Problem Solving

The following provides video in which Wake Forest University Department of Physics professors narrate, with notation and speech, various derivations and problem solutions. Some of these videos are available on YouTube through any device. Others require a player that supports .wmv files such as Microsoft Media Player.

For the development of some of these resources, the support of the Wake Forest University IS Department, through their Tablet PC program, is gratefully acknowledged.
