Synopsis
Physics by Inquiry is a set of laboratory-based modules that provide a step-by-step introduction to physics and the physical sciences. Through in-depth study of simple physical systems and their interactions, students gain direct experience with the process of science. Starting from their own observations, students develop basic physical concepts, use and interpret different forms of scientific representations, and construct explanatory models with predictive capability. All the modules have been explicitly designed to develop scientific reasoning skills and to provide practice in relating scientific concepts, representations, and models to real world phenomena.

From the Back Cover
Physics by Inquiry An introduction to Physics and the Physical Sciences Physical by Inquiry is the product of more than 20 years of research and teaching experience. Developed by the Physics Education Group at the University of Washington, these laboratory-based modules have been extensively tested in the classroom. Volumes I and II provide a step-by-step introduction to fundamental concepts and basic scientific reasoning skills essential to the physical sciences. Volume III, currently in preparation, extends this same approach to additional topics in the standard introductory physics course. Physics by Inquiry has been successfully used:
- to prepare preservice and inservice K-12 teachers to teach science as a process of inquiry
- to help underprepared students succeed in the mainstream science courses that are the gateway to science-related careers.
- to provide liberal arts students with direct experience in the scientific process, thus establishing a solid foundation for scientific literacy.
