The IB Physics Compendium 2005
Thomas Illman (tillman@abo.fi)
Version: 13 August 2005
Important notice: I will, from 2008 onwards, no longer
teach IB physics but switch to the Finnish national system at the same school
(Vasa övningsskola). This IB compendium will remain online and free for anyone
to use and develop, but I will not make a new version of it for the new IB
curriculum. Those who understand Swedish may find some useful material (also
free for anyone to use and translate) in the Gymnasiefysikkompendiet.
For a group where SL takes the Mechanics and Atomic physics extensions,
the following level separation can be used:+ = section for HL only, (+) =
partially for HL only, * = section not in
the IB programme but in the Finnish national. HL takes two of the options, SL
none.
