It is meant for anyone who is interested in learning about recent developments in physics education. It is not a review of specific topics in physics with hints for how to teach them and lists of common student difficulties. Rather, it is a handbook with a variety of tools for improving both teaching and learning of physics from new kinds of homework and exam problems, to surveys for figuring out what has happened in your class, to tools for taking and analyzing data using computers and video. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTEACHING PHYSICS includes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ean introduction to the cognitive model of thinking and learning that underlies modern physics education research\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eprinciples and guidelines for making use of and understanding the implications of this cognitive model for the classroom\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ea discussion of formative and summative evaluation with a variety of \"thinking problems\" useful for homework and exams\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ea discussion of assessment of the success of instruction using research-based concept and attitude surveys\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ediscussion of 11 research-based curricular materials for use in lecture, lab, recitation, and workshops environments\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003etips and guidelines  for how to improve your instruction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition, the book comes with a Resource CD containing 14 conceptual and 3 attitude surveys, more than 250 thinking problems covering all areas of introductory physics, resource materials from commercial vendors on use of computerized data acquisition and video, and a variety of other useful reference materials.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTEACHING PHYSICS is a companion guide to using the Physics Suite, an integrated collection of research-based instructional material for lecture, laboratory, recitation, and workshop\/studio environments.
