__Introduction__
This module introduces Thermal Physics to the Science and Math Talent Programme (SMTP) students. Blended learning is carried out in this module, in which students learn physics collaboratively through problem-based learning (PBL) and with the extensive use of Web 2.0 tools.

Students will complete this module by going through a 4 week Problem-based learning (PBL). At the end of this 8 weeks module, students will present their PBL. Assessment grades for this PBL will be taken into account for their module grade.

This module is taught by Ms Adeline Tan. (email: adeline@hc.edu.sg)

__**Collaborative Learning**__ Students are grouped in a team of three members. This group will collaborate and learn together in all module activities (web quest and PBL). Each group will maintain an e-portfolio in this wikiSPACE. Groups will discuss using the discussion forum in each wikipage. Group will submit their work into their e-porfolio.

**__Web 2.0 Tool__** This module requires students to use Web 2.0 tools extensively. The Web 2.0 tools used in this module are:
 * wikiSPACE
 * Google Doc

Students and teacher will "meet" and communicate in this the virtual space of wikiSPACE. Most of the student assignments will be done with Google Doc.

Module teacher will mark and assess the student assignments on Google DOC. No hard copy will be printed out.

__**Teaching Schedule **__ Teaching schedule can be found in the page "Record Book".

**__Assessment__** Students will be assessed through tests and their PBL presentations. Details as below:

ACE will be compiled as 10% of your final year grade.
 * ~ Assessment ||~ Weightage ||
 * Module Test (wk 7) ||= 40% ||
 * Problem-based learning ||= 40% ||
 * Assignments ||= 10% ||
 * OP ||= 10% ||

**__Submission of Work__** Students use GOOGLE DOC to complete their work and submit soft copy into their GROUP wikiSPACE.

Teacher mentor will assess the assignment and input feedback via GOOGLE DOC. Students may check their grades in [|Record of Work Submission] in GOOGLE DOC.
