| examples of displacement physics: Body Physics Lawrence Davis, 201? Body Physics was designed to meet the objectives of a one-term high school or freshman level course in physical science, typically designed to provide non-science majors and undeclared students with exposure to the most basic principles in physics while fulfilling a science-with-lab core requirement. The content level is aimed at students taking their first college science course, whether or not they are planning to major in science. However, with minor supplementation by other resources, such as OpenStax College Physics, this textbook could easily be used as the primary resource in 200-level introductory courses. Chapters that may be more appropriate for physics courses than for general science courses are noted with an asterisk symbol (*). Of course this textbook could be used to supplement other primary resources in any physics course covering mechanics and thermodynamics--Textbook Web page. |

The derivations emphasize the underlying physical arguments and interpretations without any loss of rigor. General introductions describe the main features of the methods, while connections and analogies between a priori different problems are discussed. They are completed by detailed applications in many topics including electromagnetism, hydrodynamics, statistical physics, quantum mechanics, etc. Exercises are also proposed, and their solutions are sketched. A self-contained reading of the book is favored by avoiding too technical derivations, and by providing a short presentation of important tools in the appendices. It is addressed to undergraduate and graduate students in physics, but it can also be used by teachers, researchers and engineers. |

| examples of displacement physics: Understanding Physics Like a Nerd Without Becoming One & More Kalayu Belay, James Strohaber, 2018-01-10 “Understanding Physics Like a Nerd Without Becoming One & More” is intended to benefit and awaken a reluctant reader so he or she can understand physics too. Even though this book is written primarily for students, the authors believe everyone can enjoy and learn from it. To fully understand the content of this book, readers need only a basic knowledge of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. In addition to the instruction on physics, the book provides several real life lessons for readers to learn. The book is intended to engage and to be humorous; it is written to generate a smile here and there. Sometimes, it may even challenge your intuition. The authors truly believe that everyone can understand and learn; some people’s attitudes towards learning different subjects, including—perhaps, especially—physics, just need to be shifted slightly. The authors have written this book with a conscious understanding of people’s apprehensions towards physics. It is our conviction that anyone interested in learning physics who chooses this book may be surprised to discover how much he or she is capable of understanding the subject. The major requirement for reading this book is to have an open mind and to engage in it fully. By doing so, you may surprise yourself and the world around you by not only understanding physics but by excelling in it as well. |

ISLE is an example of an intentional approach to curriculum design and learning activities (MacMillan and Garrison 1988 A Logical Theory of Teaching: Erotetics and Intentionality). Intentionality means that the process through which the learning occurs is as crucial for learning as the final outcome or learned content. In ISLE, the process through which students learn mirrors the practice of physics. |
