A Comparative Study Of AP Physics Textbooks In The United States And Chinese Physics Textbooks Published By The People's Education Press

The importance of textbooks as teachers’ first-hand information is self-evident.However,when teachers teach such knowledge,they are oftenover-simplified.because of the over-simplification of textbook writing,which makes students feel boring and difficult to understand,some contents of high school are different from those in university physics.With university education in China The popularity of physical education in high school needs to strengthen the connection with university physics so that students can learn physics in the university without causing a fault in the knowledge system,and pave the way for the students’ physics learning and knowledge construction.What we need to reform is not only in the teaching content and teaching methods,but also in the replacement of our thinking in the educational concept and cultivate students’ physical literacy and inquiry ability,which will enable us to advance our high school physics education to a higher level.AP physics as a U.S.high school preparatory course,AP course has three major advantages: high-level curriculum development,high-quality curriculum teaching,government education department departments and the community’s utmost support,and AP physics textbooks are rich in knowledge,knowledge structure is consistent with student recognition.Knowing the law,the difficulty span between the knowledge point and the knowledge point is small,the experiment method and the mathematics method are more diverse,and the emphasis is on the manifestation of scientific method education.Using AP physics for reference can not only enrich the expression and presentation methods of our national textbooks,but also be beneficial to the cultivation and improvement of students’ physical literacy and inquiry ability.In the content of textbooks,they respectively compare the content of physics knowledge,the contents and types of experiments,and the difficulty of exercises,and then compare it with more important physical content,such as Newton’s law,Lorentz force,etc.The text book presents similarities and differences in the way of presentation,presentation,illustration,and difficulty of exercises.Find its essence and go to its dross.Strive to find out from the AP physics textbooks that we can provide reference content and presentation methods for our textbooks.On the content of the textbook,respectively to the physical knowledge content,experiment content and type,and problem sets are compared,and a full range of problems such as difficult second on the physical contents of the more important,such as Newton’s law,Faraday electromagnetic induction electromotive force is about two textbook on the content such as in the presentation,expression,ratio of illustration,the similarities and differences of difficulty of the problem sets.This paper tries to find out the content and ideas that can be used for reference in AP physics textbooks,so that Chinese physics textbooks can play a more active role in cultivating students.Based on the new curriculum standard and many classical education theories,this paper summarizes the research,and lists the similarities and differences between Chinese physics textbooks and AP physics textbooks.And to our country future physics textbook compilation provides some enlightenment and the supplement.
