What are vvvdat tables and how can they help with introductory physics homework?

In summary: Like how to find forces and moments in a system and what variables to use. In summary, the author suggests that a Physics Homework FAQ type of thread be created in order to discuss ideas, structure, and content for a possible sticky thread.

When I teach intro physics to high school students, I concentrate more on them understanding the concepts at first than actually using formulas. Thus, I have the students make use of vvvdat tables in describing situations. (Initial, final, and average velocity.) Other than for solving problems in which an initial or final velocity is given, along with an acceleration and distance, those tables work quite well to reinforce concepts as well as to help with problem solving. edit: sorry, I should mention that I'm in NY; this state uses "d" for displacement in formulas.
