2021 eclips: explanatory video clips for physics students

Many physics students report that they struggle in their first semesters. Frequently, they struggle to acquire core ideas that are fundamental for physical thinking and for solving physical problems (e.g., the superposition principle). The aim of the eclips-project is to develop a collection of explanatory video clips for first-year lectures in physics. In each video, a physical core idea will be explained in a self-contained and illustrative way. eclips is a collaborative project involving members of the physics department and the physics education workgroup of the Universität Hamburg. The project is located in action area 1 of the ProfaLe-project.
