Physics Curriculum: K-12 Education in Turkey

AI Thread Summary
A discussion emerged regarding the restructuring of the physics curriculum for K-12 education in Turkey. The original poster sought insights into the order of physics topics taught in other countries. Respondents highlighted that in high schools, various educational systems like A-Levels, the French Baccalaureate, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) have similar core physics curricula but differ in available options. The IB offers a broader range of topics, including medical physics and quantum mechanics. Suggestions included researching specific curricula by searching for "Physics A-Level specification" or "physics IB syllabus," which the original poster later confirmed they found helpful.

Hi,
I am from turkey. we'll change education the physics in grade k-12 in our country. And we research how is the best order of topics.
So how is the order topics of physics in your country?
Can you give me a link I found it?
What is your suggestion in this matter?
Thank you very much for now.

Here, in high schools, one of A-Levels, the French Baccalaureate and the International Baccalaureate is studied for. The Physics curriculum for each of those boards are fairly similar, however, there are distinct differences in the "options" available. There is much more choice in IB, with topics ranging from medical physics to intro quantum mechanics and astrophysics. I would suggest you take a look at their curriculum. Just google "Physics a-level specification" or "physics IB syllabus". :)
 
Dear Thy Apathy,
Thank you very much for your answer. I found it.
 

Thread 'Applied Math PhD candidate but I hate group theory'

TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
