This guidebook consists of 11 chapters. Chapter 1 provides information on organizing a physics course, considering such topics as types of physics programs, laboratory work, curriculum selection, and computers/calculators. Chapters 2 to 11 focus, respectively, on the topic areas of forces, motion, dynamics, energy, heat, the atomic structure of matter, nuclear energy, waves, static electricity, and current electricity. Each of these 10 chapters includes: (1) a brief introduction to the concepts presented, along with a discussion of why these concepts might be important to students, and an outline of choices teachers may want to make in organizing instruction; (2) a list of performance objectives; (3) a review of content; (4) a wealth of learning experiences to employ in teaching concepts in the chapter; (5) evaluation items; and (6) annotated lists of materials useful for teaching topics in the chapter (films, film loops, filmstrips, books, and articles).
