Main Content – Five Parallel Organizations

The content of this WIKI is organized according to five parallel approaches. One of the significant advantages of the WIKI over a traditional textbook is the power to exhibit parallel structures: while a traditional text can only organize material into chapters or through a glossary, the WIKI additionally allows you to view the material as a hierarchy of models, the properties of a handful of common interactions or a collection of illustrative worked examples.

I. Instructional Paths

Sequences of lessons that suggest an order in which to learn the material and fill in details. This organizational scheme for the WIKI is designed to help beginners get started learning physics.

II. Interaction Glossary

A glossary of the specific interactions that are commonly encountered in mechanics. In addition to being a resource describing these interactions, it is reasonable to consider this glossary to provide an organizational scheme for the WIKI content. From this perspective, the glossary encourages the view that mechanics is a collection of different ways to describe the effects of a particular group of interactions.
