Assessing Students’ Attitudes In A College Physics Course In Mexico

Complicated functions appearing in physics are frequently simplified by a symmetrical parabolic approximation for obtaining useful results. The symmetrical parabolic approximation is employed in many different problems in a first year college physics course. Some examples of this approximation are explored in this article. With the aid of Hamilton’s equations it is shown that the classical formula for the kinetic energy of a particle is a symmetrical parabolic approximation for the more general relativistic formula.

In the process of cultivating high-quality applied talents in contemporary colleges and universities, any teacher should integrate curriculum ideology and politics into daily curriculum teaching. This is a task that every teacher must undertake. It is an inevitable requirement for the cultivation of high-quality talents with Chinese characteristics and socialism. It is an inevitable requirement for the cultivation of high-quality talents that meet the (outcome-based education) OBE concept and the needs of the country. Through years of organic integration of the ideological and political content of the curriculum into the teaching practice of college physics, the author has realized that this can not only achieve better teaching results, but also comprehensively improve the teachers' own education and teaching level. The author would like to take this opportunity to share some personal experiences with colleagues.
