Topic:Computational physics
From Wikiversity
This topic page is for organizing the development of Computational physics content on Wikiversity.
If you are knowledgeable in any area Computational physics, feel free to improve upon what you see, we would greatly appreciate your contributions.
[edit] Learning projects and resources
Learning materials and learning projects can be used by multiple departments. Please cooperate with other departments that use the same learning resource.
Remember, Wikiversity has adopted the "learning by doing" model for education. Lessons should center on learning activities for Wikiversity participants. We learn by doing.
Also, select a descriptive name for each learning project. Learning projects can be listed in alphanumeric order by code. Code numbers are optional, however.
