A Phenomena Based Physics: Volume 1

 

 

 

 Describe:
Volume 1 of 3 for the new 6th year edition !!

The first in a three-volume series on physics for college science teachers, this sixth-grade book discusses basic educational and cognitive principles of sound, optics, heat, electricity, and light. magnetism. Von Mackensen is very careful in his methodology. As befits pupils of this age, he seeks to give them a wide and varied experience of phenomena. Attention and familiarity with the phenomena is a constant concern. It is only gradually, after collecting the rich experience, that the theoretical considerations come into force.

These books were written for teachers in Waldorf schools. At the same time, it can serve as an introduction to the study of physics focused on phenomenology for anyone interested in this approach. Each of the three volumes begins with the same basic outline of teaching methodology. The different fields of physics adapted to the age group are then presented. A discussion of the main topics in a specific area is followed by a detailed description of a series of simple experiments.

Volume 2 for the 7th year includes further studies in the areas presented in this first book and adds a section on mechanics. Grade 8 volume 3 continues the explorations of sound, light and heat as well as hydraulic, hydrostatic and atmospheric mechanics.

All three volumes have been recently edited and reformatted into an easy-to-use notebook format for easy reference by the instructor in preparing key lesson presentations and experiences. to clear up.
