PHYSICS LEARNING IN GENERAL

Hyper Physics
- Introductory Physics
"(P. Ehrenfest) taught me for the first time to distrust complicated mathematics and formalisms that were then very popular in Göttingen. He loved to ask, and encourage others to ask, 'stupid' questions; he refused to admit that something is understood if one understands only the mathematical derivation. He showed me how to get at the real physics, how to distinguish between physics and formalism, how to get at the depth of things: 'Physics is simple, but subtle,' he used to say. The older I get, the more aware I am of his influences."
- Victor Weisskopf, My Life as a Physicist, 1971.

World of Science - Physics
Eric Weisstein's World of Science is written and maintained by the author as a public service for scientific knowledge and education. Although it is often difficult to find explanations for technical subjects that are both clear and accessible, this web site bridges the gap by placing an interlinked framework of mathematical exposition and illustrative examples at the fingertips of every internet user.

The problem solving process shown in these example is the result of 27 years of research and classroom testing. The methodology lends itself well to the inquiry method, group problem solving and individual cognitive development. The examples provide an opportunity to construct understanding through sound problem solving processes. The solution process is based on extensive problem solving literature.

Daily Excercise
These "daily" exercises consist of a few mostly conceptual questions that relate to material for the next day's lecture. They are designed to serve two purposes. First, they benefit you by encouraging you to read the relevant material before the lecture, which should help you get more out of class, ask better questions, etc. Second, they benefit me by helping me to see what concepts are giving people trouble and which ones you already understand. That allows me to adjust the lecture accordingly--and that, in turn, benefits you.
- About HyperPhysics
Rationale for Development
HyperPhysics is an exploration environment for concepts in physics which employs concept maps and other linking strategies to facilitate smooth navigation. For the most part, it is laid out in small segments or "cards", true to its original development in HyperCard. The entire environment is interconnected with thousands of links, reminiscent of a neural network. The bottom bar of each card contains links to major concept maps for divisions of physics, plus a "go back" feature to allow you to retrace the path of an exploration. The side bar contains a link to the extensive Index, which itself is composed of active links. That sidebar also contains links to relevant concept maps.
