Summary book; "Tutorials in Introductory Physics
" is based on extensive teaching
experience and more than twenty years of research in which the Physics
Education
Group has sought to identify and address common difficulties
that students encounter in studying physics.
Development of the tutorials was motivated by the conviction that in order to develop a functional understanding of the material students need more assistance than they can obtain through listening to lectures, reading the textbook, and solving standard quantitative problems.
"Tutorials in Introductory Physics
" is intended to supplement these traditional forms
of instruction by providing a structure that promotes the active mental
engagement of students in the process of learning physics. The materials
are equally appropriate for algebra-based and calculus-based courses.
Working together in small collaborative groups, students help one another go through the steps in reasoning necessary for the construction and application of important concepts and principles. The tutorials have been rigorously class-tested at the University of Washington, at other research universities, and at two-year and four-year colleges
