Rezensionen

"The book is brilliant. I hope all physics teacher trainers and trainees, as well as established teachers, use this critically important work to guide their teaching." - John Sweller, Emeritus Professor at the School of Education, The University of New South Wales, Australia

"This book is both fascinating and highly practical, with a blend of narrative and examples, of words, pictures and numbers, and of subject knowledge and pedagogical knowledge. It is not just a useful guide to teaching physics, but an exemplar of how to teach any complex concept." - Daisy Christodoulou, Director of Education, No More Marking, UK

"There is a lot of good advice in this book, not just on how to do something and what to look out for but also on why it is important. The recommendations for further reading at the end of each chapter are also good." - Miriam Chaplin, School Science Review
