| Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it |
The instructor has extensive experience teaching high school physics. Based on this professional experience, the course emphasizes a fundamental understanding of physical phenomena and provides systematic instruction in university-level physics through concept-based learning and problem-solving activities. |
| Message |
It may be helpful to have a high school physics textbook. However, since translated versions may not be available, it may be necessary to use other freely available materials translated into the students’ language during the course. In studying physics, it is important not only to memorize formulas and key equations but also to understand the processes and reasoning through which those formulas are derived. A deeper understanding of the underlying principles will help you apply physical concepts more effectively. |
