A Conference on the Introductory Calculus-Based Physics Course

物理（13）本项目支持“基于微积分的物理入门课程”会议。这次会议是美国大学本科物理学国家工作组（美国物理教师协会，AAPT，美国物理学会，APS，和美国物理学会，AIP）的倡议。近年来，很明显，有必要更新和振兴物理教育。与此同时，出现了一个重要的物理教育研究基础，特别强调介绍性物理。因此，时机已经成熟，可以为有兴趣利用研究成果改进课程的院系提供一个论坛，让他们可以获得所需的信息，包括成功实施的例子。社区对这样一个会议有很大的兴趣，估计出席人数约为200人。结果将是，大量物理系将开始按照最好的教与学思路修改他们的入门课程顺序。

Physics (13) This project is supporting a Conference on the Introductory Calculus-basedPhysics Course. The conference is an initiative of the National Task Force onUndergraduate Physics (a cooperative effort of the American Association of PhysicsTeachers, AAPT, and The American Physical Society, APS, and the American Institute ofPhysics, AIP). In recent years it has become clear that there is a need to update andrevitalize physics education. At the same time, a significant base of research in physicseducation has emerged with a particular emphasis on introductory physics. Therefore thetime is ripe to provide departments that are interested in using the results of researchto improve their courses a forum where they can get the information they need, includingexamples of successful implementations. Significant interest exists in the community forsuch a conference, and the attendance is estimated at approximately 200. The result will bea large number of physics departments that will begin to revise their introductorysequence in line with the best thinking on teaching and learning.
