There is an astonishing combination of amazing environmental conditions critical for life to exist, survive and thrive on this Big Blue Planet. These conditions for life are much more than “just add water”. Get prepared for quite the adventure as we make one astonishing discovery after another enabling Earth to be a very special, unique and marvelous place to call home! For those who have eyes to see, God’s fingerprints are everywhere!
Each Semester covers 16 weeks of material. This self-paced, comprehensive 32-week course builds a foundation for the later more advanced Sciences of Chemistry (the study of matter) and Physics (the study of motion). Physical Science comes alive in these fully illustrated PowerPoint presentations.
Dr. Daniel Korow DVM not only presents the key concepts and ideas related to Physical Science but draws from many sources creating a total package that integrates General Science, Physical Science, Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, as well as his experiences as a veterinarian.

A central focus of each class is to help your student: “Learn how to learn” and remember those facts and names that seem to be overwhelming. It is all about making Science understandable! Memorization may work on the short term to get that “A” on an exam, but memorization with understanding will last a lifetime!
Who is this course designed for?
Whether your learner loves, dislikes, or simply tolerates science, you’ll find that Dr. Dan’s Physical Science will open up a fun new way to approach the subject.

Previous Questions
Becky B: Dr. Dan, is there any need for the Apologia Physical Science notebook or do your students just take notes from your lectures instead. We've always used the notebook journals with all our Apologia curriculum. I do know the study guides for tests and lab reports are included in the notebook journals. Would it be a wasted resource for your class? What would you suggest?
Hi Becky
Sorry I didn\'t reply to this earlier, but it just came through my email this afternoon.
Thanks for the good question. Most if not all students only purchase the 2nd ed. Text of Apologia Physical Science and the Solutions Manual. I do not know of any that have purchased the Science notebook also. Typically having the Second ed. of Physical Science and the Solutions Manual are the primary resources needed.
What we cover in class (on video) closely follows the Text. The videos can be watched/ listened too multiple times as well as paused to aid in note-taking. In addition, each class (about 50 minutes) is broken up into individual topics spanning 5- 15 minutes apiece. This works out to about 3- 6 videos each week. Some students like to watch the whole class (estimated 50 minutes) in one sitting or in bite size amounts as individual videos once per day during the week. Lots of options are available.
Hopes this helps.

Kathryn G: Dr. Dan, Is the format of your videos a recording of a live class or is it in lecture format? I am looking for a video course to the Apologia text that is not a recording of a live class. Thanks, Kate Garrett

Great question Kate! Thanks for your interest in our Physical Science Class.
The short answer is that it is both! Let me explain why we feel it is the best of both worlds. As one mom expressed 12 years ago, “Dr Dan, you don’t read the book to kids, you actually teach!” Cindy W. Grand Junction, CO. In other words, we follow the sequence and content of the Exploring Creation with Physical Science book. I add numerous stories from my real-life veterinary practice experiences, quotes, articles, video clips and more.
All my classes were recorded with 2 cameras, a green screen and include electronic capture of all my PowerPoint illustrations, charts, etc. The setup allows for me to be in the picture as well! We have had wonderful reviews from parents and students alike about how clear and understandable the videos are. We did this in front of real classes, however we do not include the students visually in the videos. So, you get the beauty of me teaching “real people” but not all the distractions of live class videos. All have been edited to provide a professional quality experience.
This may be hard to picture, so please go to this sample link and have a look for yourself: The Two Models of the Atom.

It is a longer video. Most average about 10 minutes per topic but it will give you a good idea of what our videos look like! Each class we divide up the topics for that day into separate videos so that just one video can be viewed at any given time or all of them. You choose how much to watch at a given sitting.
Also, there is a “Welcome to Dr Dan’s Biology” on the Luma Learn web site. Have you viewed that one yet?
Let me know what you think of the link and welcome videos and if you have further questions! Hope to see you registered soon!
Sincerely Dr. Dan
