Teaching High School Physics

Teaching High School Physics is centered on the principle that teachers need to be educated rather than trained and helps to form a substantive and substantiated foundation for a new way of teaching. Providing a mix of theory and practice, these books describe more than 40 important topics and encourage an inquiry-oriented approach to physics teaching. They include numerous examples and helpful resources.
Managing the Physics Classroom:
•    Prepares physics teachers with a solid philosophical and practical foundation on how to manage the classroom
•    Addresses the professional practice of teaching from curriculum development to lesson planning to assessment to evaluation
•    Informs readers about how to engage in the physics education community as a leader

Teaching High School Physics is suitable for teacher candidates, experienced in-service physics teachers, and educators seeking a detailed reference guide to the many subjects being addressed in today’s teaching reform movements.
