<br/><br/> "The first program built from the ground up using Physics Education Research and cognitive science best practices for conceptual development, problem solving skill acquisition and visualization. This textbook stresses qualitative reasoning through principles of physics prior to formalizing physics mathematically and develops student problem solving skills in a systematic manner. These primary themes appeal to instructors who recognize that students benefit from the scaffolded approach to learning physics"-- Provided by publisher
