Features: This teaching material is designed with the aim of fully implementing the educational policy of the Party and comprehensively improving the quality of education. It takes the principle of "education should be oriented towards modernization, the world, and the future" as its guide, based on the "Plan," reflecting the ideas of quality-oriented education and reform and innovation. It embodies the intrinsic requirements of university-level education and serving primary school education, follows the growth patterns of primary school teachers and the characteristics of subject teaching, strengthens general education, emphasizes the integration of humanities and sciences, enhances the cultivation of professional abilities, reasonably arranges the educational structure, and scientifically constructs the teaching material system. During the writing process, it fully absorbs the teaching experience of experimental schools within and outside the province and pays attention to learning from the advanced achievements of international teacher education reform. On the premise of ensuring scientific rigor, it further highlights the timeliness, relevance, and systematic nature of the teaching material content. It adheres to the unity of normal education and academic rigor, balances foundational and developmental aspects, making the teaching material system more aligned with the needs of cultivating 21st-century primary school teachers with bachelor's or associate degrees. The entire set of teaching materials is compiled according to the goal of overall planning, phased implementation, and gradual integration. This set of teaching materials is suitable for full-time schools that train primary school teachers with university or associate degrees and can also serve as the designated teaching material for in-service primary school teachers pursuing further education, continuing education, or self-study examinations. General Physics is a textbook for the physics course in the five-year normal education program for training primary school teachers with associate degrees. The content selection and depth of the material fully consider the characteristics of undergraduate teaching. During the writing process, the authors fully recognize the requirements of teaching reform for physics textbooks, focusing on mastering concepts and strengthening applications, with the teaching principle of "must and sufficient." The book emphasizes the teaching of classical physics, providing only a brief introduction to modern physics; it focuses on explaining physical concepts, conclusions, and meanings, without rigorous derivations and arguments. The book introduces the ideas and methods of physics, appropriately reflecting the discovery and development of physical laws while elaborating on the fundamental content of physics, to demonstrate the view that theory originates from practice and is tested by practice. When introducing the fundamental theories of physics, it pays attention to establishing correct physical models and strives to provide clear physical images.
