Describes the use of laboratory equipment to demonstrate (1) the interference of light coming from an air wedge, (2) the generation of gas-filled soap bubbles, and (3) the generation of beats with a ripple tank. (LC)

Describes the equipment and procedures used to demonstrate (1) light interference with teacher-made photographic film gratings, (2) the minimum angle of deviation for the various lines of a spectrum, and (3) electrostatic phenomena. Written for the high school physics teacher. (LC)

The author divides pre-service education into five categories: (1) teaching skills, (2) curriculum development and implementation, (3) philosophy of science education, (4) legal aspects of science education, and (5) child psychology and learning theory. (CP)

Describes the Nebraska Physical Science Project, an experimental program designed to provide individualized instruction in chemistry-physics to high school students. The course objectives, topics, instructional approach, evluation instruments, and project personnel are described. (LC)

States the philosophy behind the Harvard Project Physics (HPP) film program. Describes the three long HPP films. Lists the 48 color film loops covering six broad topics, primarily motion and energy. The 8-mm silent loops are synchronized with the text materials. Explains some of the pedagogical possibilities of these film loops. (RR)

Describes the philosophy of the Intermediate Science Curriculum Study program. Explains the content structure of the program at the Seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. Discusses the individualized method of instruction of the program. Finally, reports the results and conclusions of the 1966-67 field trials and the CAI trials. Outlines future plans…

Presents the second in a series of articles in which problems related to introductory physics courses are presented. The twenty problems deal with nearly all aspects of physics and are presented in a practical and thought-provoking manner. (RR)
