Summary
The seventh edition of Inquiry Into Physics continues its strong emphasis
on the inquiry approach to learning physics. Throughout, students are asked
to try things, to discover relationships between physical quantities on
their own, and to look for answers in the world around them and not seek
them only in books or on the Internet. Some of the pedagogical tools this
text utilizes to build conceptual understanding and inquiry-based learning
include the Explore It Yourself boxes, Concept Maps integrated throughout
each chapter, and periodic Learning Check conceptual quizzes. The text
periodically reviews the historical development of physics, which is
particularly relevant as context for non-science majors. Simple mathematics
is integrated into the text so students can see the practicality of physics
and have a means of testing scientific validity. Important Notice: Media
