Integrating computation using materials from the PICUP collection in Introductory Physics*

The Partnership for Integrating Computation into Undergraduate Physics (PICUP, www.gopicup.org) runs workshops, hosts an online collection of curricular materials, and supports a growing community of interested faculty with the goal of making it easier for faculty to integrate computation into their courses. In this talk, I will share my experience integrating computation into the introductory physics sequence. I will highlight materials in the PICUP collection that I adapted, discuss how those materials fit into and enhance the course, and talk about how I integrate computation into a workshop-style course. I will then present different approaches used by faculty who integrate computation into introductory physics courses in a variety of institutional settings, so attendees can see how they might integrate computation in their own introductory courses.
