AP Physics Feud is a free end-of-year review activity for the AP Physics B course based on the popular television game show Family Feud. It consists of a series of HTML files that should run on most internet web browsers. The files can be downloaded to a computer's hard disk space so that the game can be played where there is no internet access. The game works best when it can be projected on a screen or wall so that a larger group of students can play, but those without access to such equipment may find other means of making the game work.
The game is available for free download as a service to the physics education community. You are also welcome to customize the game as you desire. All I ask in return is that you inform me of what you use it for and provide me with your modified versions. This is strictly on the honor system. I ask this so I can continue to serve as a central resource for the Feud series and so I have evidence of the game's use for research purposes and for funding proposals in case I ever seek funding to develop the game further. I hope to keep the game available for free download.
The game was designed by myself with assistance from Steve Fernandez for the 2006-2007 AP Physics class at the John D. O'Bryant School of Mathematics and Science through the National Science Foundation/Northeastern University GK-12 Program. Current contact info: Seth Baum, sbaum [at] psu.edu.
