Flexible Learning in Physics (FLIP)

A joint Stockholm University and Royal Institute of Technology project to improve the undergraduate physics teaching using new teaching methods and technologies. Supported by the Council for the Renewal of Undergraduate Teaching. To increase the attraction and efficiency of physics undergraduate teaching we have implemented the use of computer programs in the learning process in several physics courses. Existing courses have been complemented with computer simulations of physics processes using existing computer programs. In addition new courses have been designed and implemented exploiting the powerful potential of computer simulation.
