Do you want an App that teaches you Physics?


I'm concepting an app to teach Physics. Rather than a collection of free resources, this would be a curated, somewhat opinionated adaptive learning system. The eventual goal would be to be able to take a motivated high-school student all the way to graduate-level physics. Initially, I'd consider aiming for the content covered in a standard full-year introductory university physics course (Mechanics + Electricity & Magnetism).

I know that there are developers and engineers out there who would like to learn more physics, but either need the structure of courses, or don't have much time.

Would you pay for this? I'm thinking a Netflix-ish subscription fee. iOS, Android, PC, Mac, Linux.

You have described a system of learning consisting only of pre-manufactured content. I feel like the success of this venture is based on an improbable premise: that an education in physics is possible by listening without the opportunity to ask.

You have deigned to ask this very question on the forum. Presumably because finding a good answer by searching for existing content was not likely to address your question.

Now don't you think graduate-level physics is a little bit more hard and complicated to learn?
