A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

UNDERSTANDING PHYSICS THROUGH ACTIVITY–BASED LEARNING!

Activity–Based Tutorials are a set of small–group, guided inquiry learning materials designed for use in recitation and discussion sections. Students develop conceptual knowledge of the physics through:

• Simple experiments using computer data acquisition tools
• Basic observations enhanced by the use of digitized videotape of real phenomena
• Analysis of computer simulations that aid in visualization of abstract ideas
• Conceptually rich problems

The Activity–Based Tutorials are designed to accompany and enhance lecture instruction. They have been developed using a cycle of physics education research, including investigations into student learning on a given topic, development of materials, and revision of the materials based on evaluation after use in the classroom.

Activity–Based Tutorials, Volume 1: Introductory Physics presents tutorials for topics in kinematics dynamics, oscillations, waves, heat and temperature, electrostatics, and circuits.

Activity–Based Tutorials are a component of the Physics Suite. The Physics Suite is a collection of materials created by a group of curriculum developers and educational reformers known as the Activity Based Physics Group. The Physics Suite contains a broad array of curricular materials that are based on physics education research, including:

• Understanding Physics (an introductory textbook based on the best–selling text by Halliday/Resnick/Walker)
• Workshop Physics Activity Guide (intended for use in a workshop setting)
• Physics by Inquiry (intended for use in a workshop setting)
• Interactive Lecture Demonstrations
• RealTime Physics (for use in laboratories)
• Teaching Physics with the Physics Suite (an instructor s manual for using the Suite materials)
