Integrated Physics and Chemistry Full Course Kit

Description

Although designed as a high school course, IPC can be an excellent science course for pre-high school students. The full course equates to two high school transcript credits: Physics and Basic Chemistry. Teachers can elect to have students complete all twelve chapters in one year to earn two transcript credits. Another option is to divide the course in half, selecting six chapters to be completed for one transcript credit for Conceptual Physics (chapters 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12) or six chapters for one credit in Basic Chemistry (chapters 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 11).

Includes all texts, activity packets, and Teacher's Resource Kit w/ digital downloads.

Category Description for People, Places and Principles of Integrated Physics & Chemistry

This high school science course introduces students to science and chemistry in an approachable, engaging way. Authored by John Hudson Tiner, the emphasis is on the people and principles that have made science into what it is today, not on memorizing and using formulas. The program is divided into 12 chapters, each packaged individually. While some chapters focus more exclusively on either chemistry or physics, many cover both. Throughout each chapter, plenty of anecdotes, biographies, and interesting details are shared, making it especially appealing to students who would otherwise probably not enjoy science as much. Designed as a two-credit course, six chapters of the course may also be studied for one credit (although local requirements may vary). Overall, a student will get a very thorough history and understanding of the science concepts in this course, but very little hands-on lab experience (the publisher cautions that additional lab classes may be needed for this program to count for the desired number of credits). However, this course may be a good option for the self-motivated student that does not have a solid math background, and is not looking to major in the sciences in college. - Jess
