Welcome to the REsearch in Learning, Assessing, and Tutoring Effectively (RELATE) physics textbook! 

The goal of this textbook is to teach you a new way to think.

Physics will ask you to:

• Look at the world through the lenses of simple mathematical models that shed light on the underlying symmetries and structures in nature.
• Develop a facility in using these models to solve problems with real-world applications both quantitatively and qualitatively.
• Learn how to check your solutions to problems against the assumptions of the models to develop confidence and further your understanding.

The form of this textbook will allow for student contributions.

 Certain content areas will allow you to make contributions of your own.  Before contributing, please read the RELATE wiki Copyright and Waiver.
