There has been extensive research on teaching this course over thepast five decades, and many people have investigated it from different aspects, such as theknowledge structure construction and procedural thinking in problem solving. From ourexperience in teaching this course, we find that there is another intrinsic issue that has attractedlittle attention.Newtonian Mechanics is an excellent topic for students to learn how to solve problems with asystematic knowledge base.
