This book promotes the effective implementation and development of
critical analysis in physics. It focuses on explanatory texts
concerning subjects typically dealt with in secondary or higher
education and addressed in an academic or popular context. It
highlights the general difficulties and obstacles inherent in
teaching physics and shows how some tools can help to combine
successful criticism and better understanding. The book examines
the main reasons to call a text into question and looks at risk
factors such as simplifications, story-like explanations and visual
analogies. It takes inventory of the benefits and limits of
critical analysis and discusses the complex links between
conceptual mastery and critical attitude. The book ends by offering
tools to activate critical thinking and ways for educators to guide
students towards productive critical analysis.
