Designed for 9th–11th graders, Introductory Physics incorporates math, history, and epistemology, making it the perfect text to draw students upward into the adult world of scientific investigation. This course is ideal for the “physics first” high school sequence, which places a physics-based course in the freshman year, but will also serve sophomores and juniors well. The text includes 2 optional, more challenging chapters on buoyancy and geometric optics for older students.
The Digital Resources for Introductory Physics include a course overview, quizzes, semester exams, keys, weekly review guides, and more.
The Solutions Manual to Accompany Introductory Physics includes worked-out solutions to calculation exercises.
The Experiments for Introductory Physics and ASPC volume contains the complete teacher’s instructions for conducting the lab experiments for Introductory Physics. The 6 experiments are designed to teach proper laboratory skills and methods, illustrate concepts in physics, and stimulate students with interesting scientific activity. Each chapter typically includes Learning Objectives, Materials List, Experimental Purpose, Scientific Overview, Pre-Lab Discussion Points, Student Instructions, any Safety Concerns, and discussion of the use of any special apparatus.
