The overall goal of this calculus based text is to provide an introduction to physics with a modern point of view. It emphasizes the atomic nature of matter, macro micro connections, and modeling complex physical systems. The approach is designed to go beyond low level physics and to build upon readers prior preparation. The second volume deals ...

This integrated text/workbook/laboratory manual is intended for a first year calculus-based physics course covering electricity and magnetism. The book places as much emphasis on qualitative reasoning as on quantitative analysis to provide a meaningful conceptual framework within which the quantitative work makes more sense. It also stresses ...
In this book atomic nature of matter is the unifying theme. Emphasis on constructing and using physical models. It teaches computer modeling and the use of desktop experiments to build physical intuition.
The fields of computer-assisted instruction and intelligent tutoring systems have had few vehicles for sharing ideas or programs. Different backgrounds and settings meant reading different journals and attending different conferences. The purpose of this book is to foster a mutual understanding of shared issues and contemporary approaches so as to ...
The curriculum has been restructured so that students will have the necessary fundamental understanding of charges and fields before going on to more complex issues. Qualitative reasoning and quantitative analysis are discussed equally in order to provide a meaningful conceptual framework within which the quantitative work makes more sense. Atomic ...
"Matter and Interactions" offers a modern curriculum for introductory physics (calculus-based). It presents physics the way practicing physicists view their discipline and integrates 20th Century physics and computational physics. The text emphasizes the small number of fundamental principles that underlie the behavior of matter, and models that ...
