I present the current innovations introduced into the freshman physics
courses at the University of Texas at Brownsville. I discuss the
philosophy behind the project which I called the ``eclectic'' approach
and present some examples of the technologies utilized. The study of
motion with the use of computer animations and digitalized video
analysis is discussed in particular.
