Welcome to Physics for the IB Diploma Third Edition, updated and designed to meet the criteria of the new International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme Physics Guide. This coursebook provides complete coverage of the new IB Physics Diploma syllabus, with first teaching from 2023. Differentiated content for SL and HL students is clearly identified throughout.
The aim of this syllabus is to integrate concepts, topic content and the nature of science through inquiry. Approaches to learning in the study of physics are integrated with the topics, along with key scientific inquiry skills. This book comprises five main themes:
Theme A: Space, time and motion
Theme B: The particulate nature of matter
Theme C: Wave behaviour
Theme D: Fields
Theme E: Nuclear and quantum physics
Each theme is divided into syllabus topics. The book has been written with a sympathetic understanding that English is not the first language of many students.
No prior knowledge of physics by students has been assumed, although many will have taken an earlier course (and they will find some useful reminders in the content). In keeping with the IB philosophy, a wide variety of approaches to teaching and learning has been included in the book (not just the core physics syllabus). The intention is to stimulate interest and motivate beyond the confines of the basic physics content. However, it is very important students know what is the essential knowledge they have to take into the examination room. This is provided by the Key information boxes. If this information is well understood, and plenty of self-assessment questions have been done (and answers checked), then a student will be well-prepared for their IB Physics examination.
The online Glossary is another useful resource. It's aim is to list and explain basic terminology used in physics, but it is not intended as a list of essential information for students. Many of the terms in the Glossary are highlighted in the book as 'Key terms' and also emphasized in the nearby margins.
