...program would seem to be one effective way of organizing such a program. Preferably the first semester would consist of mathematics and could thus be skipped by anyone who had completed this equivalent. Such an introductory semester of math might give the rudimentary concepts of functions, calculus, and the limit--a requisite for understanding the idea of approximation and measurement. With a semester of math under his belt the student could continue on to a semester of basic physics--perhaps mechanics and thermo-dynamics--to get the fundamental concepts of energy...
