Abstract

Abstract T his paper discussed the nature of physics and its importance as one of the most prominent sciences in the progress and prosperity of countries. There is no aspect of life, whether current or future, that is not controlled by one of the applications of physics. Physics is a way of life because of its many fields aimed at understanding and interpreting the natural phenomena of the universe and scientific laws. Due to the importance of its studies, many international projects were conducted to develop physics curricula at the secondary level in order to address its shortcomings and focus on the intersection between science, technology, and society, and include investigative skills and scientific technological processes. Despite this, the results of the studies indicated students' reluctance to study physics or enroll. In physics departments in university colleges, these reasons were discussed, and the current paper recommended reconsidering the design of physics curricula so that they are based on the integration of physics and mathematics curricula, taking into account the logical organization of scientific content, and including in the content topics closely related to the lives of learners, their environment, and society, and that the content reflect the nature of the relationship between Science, environment, society and technology
