The "Salters Horners Advanced Physics" series places physics into social, industrial, environmental and historical contexts, and covers the A Level specifications in place from September 2000. This A2 Level student book features maths support notes and applications-led illustrations of physics.

Learning to Teach Science in the Secondary School, now in its third edition, is an indispensable guide to the process and practice of teaching and learning science. This new edition has been fully updated in the light of changes to professional knowledge and practice – including the introduction of master level credits on PGCE courses – and revisions to the national curriculum. Written by experienced practitioners, this popular textbook comprehensively covers the opportunities and challenges of teaching science in the secondary school. It provides guidance on: the knowledge and skills you need, and understanding the science department at your school development of the science curriculum in two brand new chapters on the curriculum 11-14 and 14-19 the nature of science and how science works, biology, chemistry, physics and astronomy, earth science planning for progression, using schemes of work to support planning , and evaluating lessons language in science, practical work, using ICT , science for citizenship, Sex and Health Education and learning outside the classroom assessment for learning and external assessment and examinations. Every unit includes a clear chapter introduction, learning objectives, further reading, lists of useful resources and specially designed tasks – including those to support Masters Level work – as well as cross-referencing to essential advice in the core text Learning to Teach in the Secondary School, fifth edition. Learning to Teach Science in the Secondary School is designed to support student teachers through the transition from graduate scientist to practising science teacher, while achieving the highest level of personal and professional development.

DT These highly successful revision guides have been brought right up-to-date for the new A Level specifications introduced in September 2000.DT Oxford Revision Guides are highly effective for both individual revision and classroom summary work. The unique visual format makes the key concepts and processes, and the links between them, easier to memorize.DT Students will save valuable revision time by using these notes instead of condensing their own.DT In fact, many students are choosing to buy their own copies so that they can colour code or highlight them as they might do with their own revision notes.

This title is being produced in collaboration with the exam board and they will be marketing it to centres who follow AQA Physics B A level. It consists of concise content, exactly tailored to and following the sequence of the specification. This A2 book covers the second half of the course.In October 2000 the AS book, covering the first half of the course, was published.The book provides the student with: - information about the examination papers - advice on how to tackle exam questions effectively, including synoptic questions - definitions and facts which need to be learnt - essential concepts and principles explained carefully and concisely - real-life applications of content, particularly in the context of Information and Communication which is the underlying theme of the specification - lots of practice exam questions. It's the essential guide to this exam.

This volume is important because despite various external representations, such as analogies, metaphors, and visualizations being commonly used by physics teachers, educators and researchers, the notion of using the pedagogical functions of multiple representations to support teaching and learning is still a gap in physics education. The research presented in the three sections of the book is introduced by descriptions of various psychological theories that are applied in different ways for designing physics teaching and learning in classroom settings. The following chapters of the book illustrate teaching and learning with respect to applying specific physics multiple representations in different levels of the education system and in different physics topics using analogies and models, different modes, and in reasoning and representational competence. When multiple representations are used in physics for teaching, the expectation is that they should be successful. To ensure this is the case, the implementation of representations should consider design principles for using multiple representations. Investigations regarding their effect on classroom communication as well as on the learning results in all levels of schooling and for different topics of physics are reported. The book is intended for physics educators and their students at universities and for physics teachers in schools to apply multiple representations in physics in a productive way.

In this proceedings volume, the following topics are discussed: systems and design; blanket and first wall technology of fission and fusion reactors; fission and fusion materials; radiation damage analysis; calculation codes; databases.
