Summary

Now available for the first time with Macmillan’s new online learning tool Achieve, Freedman’s College Physics makes it easy for instructors to support every student by using best teaching practices in their algebra-based physics courses. With resources for before, during, and after class, students of all backgrounds are engaged and supported at every step of the learning process. The text further supports student comprehension with its hallmark Set Up, Solve, Reflect problem-solving approach to help students understand and visualize problems. Perfect for students of all backgrounds, the text contains call-outs to additional math review and relevant applications of physics, including those from biology. 


In this edition, the end-of-chapter questions have been thoroughly updated for clarity and quality and are now all available for assigning in Achieve, while still featuring detailed and targeted feedback, solutions, and hints for every question.
