Inhaltsangabe:

* Modeling: The text places a major emphasis on constructing and using physical "models". A central aspect of science is the modeling of complex real-world phenomena. A physical model is based on fundamental principles; its intent is to predict or explain the most important aspects of an actual situation.
* Computer Modeling: Computer modeling is now as important as theory and experiment in contemporary science and engineering. Computer modeling is introduced right away to help build a strong foundation in the use of this important tool.
* Experiments Using Simple Equipment: Some end-of-chapter problems involve experiments using simple equipment such as weights, string, coffee filters, scotch tape, etc. By experimenting with very simple equipment, students can gain insight into rather deep scientific issues.
* Active Learning: Stop and Think questions are interspersed throughout the reading to encourage students to engage the material more deeply.
* Lab Activities- There is a complete set of lab activities that were written specifically for a Matter & Interactions-style course."
