  • Problem-Based Approaches to Physics

    Changing perspectives in higher education

    by Professor Derek Jeffrey Raine ...
    Series series IOP ebooks
    The role of university is changing under the pressure of external, largely economic and cultural forces. The call to increase recruitment of students to STEM subjects is predicated on their strategic importance for the economy. However, the notion of university physics as a purely vocational training is attractive neither to students nor to their teachers, and is contrary to the ethos of the ... Read more

  • Principles Of Mechanics

    by John L. Synge ...
    In a sense this is a book for the beginner in mechanics, but in another sense it is not. From the time we make our first movements, crude ideas on force, mass, and motion take shape in our minds. This body of ideas might be reduced to some order at high school as crude ideas of geometry are reduced to order, but that is not the educational practice in North America. There is rather an accumulation ... Read more
