Teaching Method
Traditional
Teacher-centered curriculum commonly used in classrooms that may include a text, teacher manual, tests, etc.
Charlotte Mason
A methodology based on the work of a 19th century educator who maintained that children learn best from literature (Living Books), not textbooks.
Classical
A methodology based on the Latin Trivium (three stages of learning), including the grammar stage (memorization and facts), logic stage (critical thinking), and rhetoric stage (developing/defending ideas).
Unit Study
A thematic or topical approach centered around one topic that integrates multiple subject areas.
Montessori (Discovery)
A methodology based on the work of a 20th century educator that emphasizes student and sensory-driven discovery learning and real-life applications.
Other
Other methodologies
Religious Content
Secular
Contains content contrary to common Christian beliefs (i.e. evolution).
Neutral
Avoids religious or theoretical topics or presents multiple viewpoints without preference.
Christian/Religious
Faith-based or including instructional religious content.

Publisher's Description of BJU Press Physics Student 3rd Edition (Copyright Update) New Paper
Physics introduces students to the world of forces, movement, mechanics, and energy in an engaging and clearly written textbook. It also lays the foundations of electricity, magnetism, and optics, and stresses a logical problem-solving approach with many examples and diagrams. Students will put their math skills to use in a derivative approach.
Your students will see how physics is used to solve important problems that help preserve human life and vastly improve the quality of our lives. These applications make for engaging and stimulating classroom discussions. Students will also work directly with real-world data sets to model physical phenomena that gives them a much better understanding of and appreciation for the orderliness of God''s creation. These activities help students build proper scientific paradigms founded on biblical principles.
Presented as an algebra-based physics course. Two years of algebra and geometry are recommended as a prerequisite. The second year of algebra may be taken concurrently.
Covers the
foundations of mechanics, thermal energy, electricity and magnetism, optics, as
well as an introduction to modern physics. Stresses a logical approach to
problem solving, supported by examples and diagrams. Your student should have
completed Algebra 2 before beginning this course, as it uses a mathematical and
derivative approach. Revised in 2010.
