Ebook: Instructor's Manual for Conceptual Physics, 12th edition
Author: Paul Hewitt
The purpose of this manual is to help you combat the all-too-common
notion that a course in physics has to be a course in applied mathematics.
Rather than seeing the equations of physics as lifeless recipes for
plugging in numerical data, your students can be taught to see physics
equations as statements about the connections and relationships in
nature. You can teach them to see that terms in equations are like notes
on a musical score—they say something. Encountering conceptual
physics should be a delightful surprise for your students. When the first
experience with physics is delightful, rigor of the next experience will be
welcomed!
