Pedagogical foundation and features
College Physics for AP
® Courses is organized so that topics are introduced conceptually with a steady progression to precise definitions and analytical applications. The analytical, problem-solving aspect is tied back to the conceptual before moving on to another topic. Each introductory chapter, for example, opens with an engaging photograph relevant to the subject of the chapter and interesting applications that are easy for most students to visualize.

Connections for AP
® Courses introduce each chapter and explain how its content addresses the AP
® curriculum.
-
Worked Examples Examples start with problems based on real-life situations, then describe a strategy for solving the problem that emphasizes key concepts. The subsequent detailed mathematical solution also includes a follow-up discussion.
-
Problem-solving Strategies are presented independently and subsequently appear at crucial points in the text where students can benefit most from them.
-
Misconception Alerts address common misconceptions that students may bring to class.
-
Take-Home Investigations provide the opportunity for students to apply or explore what they have learned with a hands-on activity.
-
Real World Connections highlight important concepts and examples in the AP
® framework.
-
Applying the Science Practices includes activities and challenging questions that engage students while they apply the AP
® science practices.
-
Things Great and Small explains macroscopic phenomena (such as air pressure) with submicroscopic phenomena (such as atoms bouncing off of walls).
-
PhET Explorations link students to interactive PHeT physics simulations, developed by the University of Colorado, to help them further explore the physics concepts they have learned about in their book module.

In biology, a pathogen (Greek: πάθος pathos "suffering", "passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") in the oldest and broadest sense, is anything that can produce disease. A pathogen may also be referred to as an infectious agent, or simply a germ.
The term pathogen came into use in the 1880s.[1][2
