Physical Science
by Dean HurdPrentice Hall Physical Science presents science as a process that involves research, experimentation, and the development of theories that can hold great explanatory and predictive power. This approach reflects the challenges and intellectual rewards available to students in the ever-changing discipline of science.
Physical Science
by R. Terrance Egolf Donald CongdonBeginning with an introduction to why we do science, the Physical Science Student Text, 5th ed., gradually builds the student's understanding of physics concepts in a logical sequence. Beginning with classical mechanics, the text progresses through work and energy, wave phenomena, electricity and magnetism, and light and optics. These transition naturally into the chemistry topics, beginning with the atomic model, then to elements and compounds, chemical reactions, and finishing with solutions, and acids, basis, and salts. Every chapter shows by example why the subject matter is relevant to a Christian worldview of science.
Physical Science
by Donald H. Jacobs Robert H. MarshallHave you ever wondered how a camera or a computer works? Do you listen to music on the radio or a boom box? Do you know how the sound is produced by these machines? Have you ever noticed that your body seems to weigh less in water? Do you know why? All of these questions--and many more--can be answered by studying physical science.
Physical Science
by Donald H. Jacobs Robert H. MarshallThis book covers the area of physical science. It also focuses on science skills that scientists use. These skills include asking questions, making predictions, designing experiments or procedures, collecting and organizing information, calculating data, making decisions, drawing conclusions, and exploring more options.
Physical Science
by Donald H. Jacobs Robert H. MarshallWith the full-color Physical Science text, students learn the properties of matter, elements, compounds, electricity, and sound and light. Students reading below grade level gain practice in working with data and sharpen their abilities to infer, classify, and theorize.
Physical Science
by Rita Ann Calvo Kenneth Cutler James TrefilScience is central to daily life. As consumers, we are besieged by new products and processes, not to mention a bewildering variety of warnings about health and safety. As taxpayers, we must vote on issues that directly affect our communities - energy taxes, recycling proposals, and more. A firm grasp of the principles and methods of science will help you make life2s important decisions in a more informed way.
Physical Science
by John MaysCombining mastery-learning and a unique textbook philosophy, this physical science course helps students break the Cram-Pass-Forget cycle so that they truly learn and retain course material. <P><P> This physical science text is designed for grades 6-8. Physical Science is beautifulky designed and organized around the principles guiding all Centripetal Press texts summarized in the words Mastery, Integration, Wonder. <P><P> Good science instruction should draw students upward into the adult world of scientific inquiry. We start with a proven mastery-learning paradigm: through a carefully crafted program, students continually learn and build on their learning, reencountering key concepts and practicing scientific skills so that they become settled in the student's mind. <P><P> Mastery learning requires ongoing review even as new material is presented. It also takes culling the material down to a manageable amount that an average student can actually master in the course of a year. This means that Novare texts are serendipitously smaller than the usual 8-10 pound tomes. Better, more enduring learning takes place when the student goes deeper with a moderate amount of material rather than trying to cover too many topics too rapidly or shallowly. <P><P> Each chapter begins with a list of quantifiable learning objectives and important vocabulary. Chapters also include periodic Learning Checks which provide a moment to stop and review. There are 12 "Experimental Investigations" included with the book, not in a separate manual, with instructions and materials listed. The teacher's version of the experiment in on the Resource CD. Some experiments are demonstrated in Youtube videos. <P><P> integration is the inclusion of material across subjects relevant to the topic in the text: the history behind the science, grade-level mathematics, written and verbal English language skills and measurement skills. Novare Physical Science in particular even includes some discussion of epistemology (what kind of knowledge does science give us and how is that different from biblical revelation). References from the humanities are used where appropriate to add greater dimension, to humanize and decompartmentalize science, references to art, music, architecture, technology, and literature. <P><P> Finally, this text specifically devotes space to the presence of order in the universe, as well as the nature of truth, theories, facts, hypotheses, and the nature of scientific knowledge. <P><P> Physical Science is beautiful inside and out. With a mature, developed sense of aesthetics, this book is tidy and attractive. Students love the personal style of the narrative in which the author concisely and accurately explains the concepts with evident wonder and excitement at the marvels of the world.
