The excerpt indicates the assumption that physics must be taught not only by different methods but also for different physics training needs or different educational objectives.

Despite the local advances made in the previous work of my colleagues, we can say that we are in a pre-paradigmatic moment where innovations dispute a place in the sun, trying to be viewed as more successful than others are. The result in the last years is the proliferation of a soup of letters that are popping up all over the world as acronyms, for instance, SCALE-UP (Student-Centered Activity Learning Environment with Upside-Down Pedagogies—Beichner et al. 2007), PI (Peer Instruction—Crouch et al., 2007), PUM (Physics Union Mathematics), REACT (Relating, Experiencing, Applying, Cooperating, Transferring—Crawford 2001), JiTT (Just-in-Time Teaching—Novak et al. 1999) and Isle (Investigative Science Learning Environment—Etkina and Van Heuvelen 2007), among others.
