The module covers in greater depth electromagnetic induction, its effects, and how it is used to advantage in electrical circuits; and the physical components, called inductors, designed to take advantage of the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. This module is divided into four lessons: electromagnetism; inductors and flux density, inducing…

The student will study the ways that inductance affects voltage and current in Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC) circuits and why and how inductors cause these actions. The module is divided into six lessons: rise and decay of current and voltage, LR (inductive-resistive) time constant, using the universal TC (time constant) chart,…

The module introduces a very important electrical device, the transformer. The module is divided into six lessons: transformer construction, transformer theory and operation, turns and voltage ratios, power and current, transformer efficiency, and semiconductor rectifiers. Each lesson consists of an overview, a list of study resources, lesson…

In this module the student will learn about another circuit quantity, capacitance, and discover the effects of this component on circuit current, voltage, and power. The module is divided into seven lessons: the capacitor, theory of capacitance, total capacitance, RC (resistive-capacitive circuit) time constant, capacitive reactance, phase and…

The module covers series circuits which contain both resistive and reactive components and methods of solving these circuits for current, voltage, impedance, and phase angle. The module is divided into six lessons: voltage and impedance in AC (alternating current) series circuits, vector computations, rectangular and polar notation, variational…

In this module the student will combine RL (resistive-inductance) and RC (resistive-capacitive) circuits and learn some of the phenomena which result. The module is divided into four lessons: solving RLC (resistive-inductance-capacitive) circuits, resonant frequency in series circuits, conditions of series resonance, and experiments with series…

In this module the student will learn about parallel RL (resistive-inductance), RC (resistive-capacitive), and RCL (resistive-capacitive-inductance) circuits and the conditions that exist at resonance. The module is divided into six lessons: solving for quantities in RL parallel circuits; variational analysis of RL parallel circuits; parallel RC…

The final module emphasizes utilizing the information learned in modules 1-14 to analyze and evaluate the power supply constructed in Module 0. The module contains the following narrative--power supply evaluation; experiment 1--resistance analysis of the half-wave and semiconductor power supply; experiment 2--voltage analysis of the half-wave and…

Written primarily for college students who plan to enter into a physical activity career, this text deals with the foundations of physical activity in its roles as disciplines and professions. Individual, societal, and cultural needs for sports and physical activity are described. For clear presentation, the book is divided into four distinct…

This text provides an introduction to the principles of behavior modification and the specific information needed to apply these principles successfully in a school environment. Emphasis is on closing the gap between theory and practice through step-by-step procedures for developing, modifying, and fading out behavior management programs. Part 1…

Summarized are the proceedings of a conference on the education of severely and profoundly handicapped children and youth. Following a welcome address by J. Kierstead are entries with the following titles and authors: "Basic Components of Instructional Programs--Theory into Practice" (L. Brown, et al.); "The Criterion of Ultimate…

This monograph presents an overview of the Early Childhood-Special Education Teacher Preparation Program designed to prepare preschool teachers to be developmental diagnosticians and learning facilitators for young children, including children with handicaps, from birth to age 7. This report describes the operational aspects of the program…

Presented is a collection of 11 papers from a national training institute for special education administrators and others which focused on the major provisions of Public Law 94-142 (Education for All Handicapped Children Act). Papers are divided into three sections: perspectives from Congress and U.S. Office of Education, review and discussion of…

Examined are open learning systems in Australia, Canada, France, Federal Republic of Germany, Iran, Israel, Japan, Kenya, Lebanon, Poland, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, United Kingdom, and the United States. The implications of open-learning and its relation to nontraditional student and continuing education, educational and social…

This monograph describes the curriculum of the child development center of the Early Childhood-Special Education Teacher Preparation Program. The center provides a model preschool program in which teacher trainees work with children, ages 2-6, (several of whom have developmental deficiencies). The curriculum is designed to help teacher trainees…
