Core Concept Physics (CCP) app for iPhone and iPad

Core Concept Physics
A self-standing package for; students, teachers, parents or tutors to enhance the learning/ teaching and understanding of Physics. http://www.coreconceptlearning.com/

For Students - Do you find that:

• your learning of Physics seems incomplete or confusing?
• You don’t understand?
• The way in which you are taught is not working for you?
• There is too much content?
• Topics don’t link together or make sense?
• You just want to better understand the subject?
• Need a more effective way of revising?
• You don’t understand how you learn?

Then this App will help with all of the above. CCL breaks down Physics into its core basic concepts and then layers these in a process that quickly will link them from core to high level understanding.

* Easy to use menu that simplifies concepts
* Presents and links key videos
* Hundreds of slides presenting concepts,
* Resources
* Flash cards
* Section to explain the mastery of learning concepts and enhancing learning in any area

For Teachers

• Carefully crafted and researched evidence based philosophy of learning which incorporates BFFM, Construct Theory and Deductive Reasoning.

Core Concept Learning (CCL)

In a world where information is so readily available, everyone can learn, but the age of knowledge must now give way to an age of understanding. Joining ideas and mastery of concepts is core to understanding. Core Concept Learning® is a unique system of learning, which identifies Core Concepts and engineers holistic learning. CCL strives for efficiency and excellence through principles of evidence based, scientific design, modelling, simplicity, common sense and core values.

‘’The 21st century learner inherits a world where innovation is the rule, not the exception’’ (George Lucas – Edutopia)

It is believed that when students understand, they learn better and grow in confidence. When this happens any fear attached to this area of learning will diminish. Understanding and confidence gives the ability to independently learn outside the classroom and take risks. If the students know how they learn, their strengths and weaknesses, they are better able to adapt and vary the process. The same is true of teachers. CCL should help in the specific subject area as well as the general pedagogy.

CCL can be used to map out simple pathways through complex subject areas. It can rationalise what learning is to the teacher and student for learning, revision or curriculum development.
