Book Overview

The Teaching of Physics for Purposes of General Education is a book written by C. Mann Riborg and originally published in 1917. The book is a comprehensive guide to teaching physics in a way that is accessible and relevant to students who are not necessarily pursuing a career in science. Riborg argues that physics is an essential part of a well-rounded education, and that it can be taught in a way that is engaging and useful to students who may not have a natural aptitude for science. He suggests that physics can be taught through practical, hands-on experiments and demonstrations, rather than relying solely on theoretical concepts.The book is divided into several sections, each covering a different aspect of teaching physics for general education. Riborg discusses the importance of selecting appropriate topics and methods of instruction, as well as the role of the teacher in creating a positive and engaging classroom environment. He also provides a range of practical examples and exercises that can be used to teach physics in a way that is both accessible and enjoyable for students.Overall, The Teaching of Physics for Purposes of General Education is an important work that highlights the value of physics education for all students, regardless of their future career aspirations. It is a valuable resource for teachers, educators, and anyone interested in improving the quality of science education in schools.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
