Solving Physics Problems: Exploring New Thinking Paradigms

This book provides a complete, consistent, and open system for studying  physics problems, which not only provides high-quality teaching  materials for the field of physics education (especially for Physics  Olympiad training) but also points out a new direction for physics  education. In this book, a form of methodology, which can  comprehensively present cogitation discipline, is built up for analyzing  and solving complex physics problems. The text analyzes plenty of  physics problems (classical mechanics) from both theoretical and  philosophical points of view to reveal the way of exerting this form. As  a set of methodology reflecting the cogitation discipline, the thinking  paradigm proposed in this book (called the MLQ-(ST)C paradigm) is a  theoretical tool to develop people's acquisition of this ability. The  paradigm successfully deconstructs the elements and the structure in  physical thinking and then eliminates the obstacles of people’s  underlying thinking, so that all the thinking built on it can be clear  and ordered. The physics problems included in this book are  significantly more difficult than similar books within the same  theoretical domains involved, leading to better teaching and learning  value.
