Understanding Physics - WITH Student Access Card eGrade Plus 2 Term

Using an interactive learning strategy, this text provides a hands on introduction to the fundamentals of Physics.

Built on the foundations of Halliday, Resnick, and Walker's "Fundamentals Of Physics, 6e", this text represents the latest methods in physics instruction.

Incorporating new approaches based upon Physics Education Research (PER), this book is designed for courses that use computer-based laboratory tools, and promote Activity Based Physics in lectures, labs, and recitations.

It: incorporates a narrative flow and touchstone examples that supports student learning; emphasises on observation and experimentation - the experimental evidence for many of the physical laws and relationships discussed in the narrative have been presented in graphical form; incorporates active learning - the story line is reinforced by the use of Reading Exercises that help students focus on thoughtful reading of the text sections in each chapter; and alternative problem selections - based on the authors' knowledge of research on student learning difficulties, these new problems require careful qualitative reasoning and explicitly connect conceptual understanding to quantitative problem solving. Before you buy, make sure you are getting the best value and all the learning tools you'll need to succeed in your course.
