Goodie Bags (GB’s) are mini-experiment kits that allow students to explore a key concept and solve related problems. Learn more about what inspired Prof. Grossman to create GBs for the students in 3.091 in the Instructor Insights section.

These videos were made possible by a team of 3.091 TAs and friends in Winter 2020. Each video outlines the process of working through one goodie bag, including the learning objectives, experimental steps, and key conclusions. The videos contain all the information you need to try the problem sheets, though the necessary materials are listed if you’d like to follow along from home.
