Student's Use of the Physics Derivation Graph

navigation / documentation overview / Student's Use

You learn Math and Physics content using lectures, textbooks, and homework.

You can use the Physics Derivation Graph to figure out the relevance of what is being taught. - what concepts in relativity depend on what was learned in classical mechanics? - what areas of physics rely on integration and what relies on differentiation?

The mechanics of mathematical physics is the application of inference rules taught in math classes. In addition the questions relevant for instructors, for physics students the Physics Derivation Graph could address questions like

• "How much of what is known in Physics have I learned?"
• "What else in Physics is there to learn?"
• "What portion of Physics does the course I'm taking represent?"

Math classes essentially teach a set of inference rules. For math students, the Physics Derivation Graph could address questions like

• "What are example applications of the techniques I am learning?"
• "How frequently is this technique used?"
