Discusses use of the modified Keller method to teach three semesters of physics courses to groups of 10-12 students. Indicates student performance is markedly improved on the final examinations. (CC)

Seventeen experiments in physics are described to demonstrate various physical phenomena. These include the areas of velocity of sound, damped oscillations, plastic deformation of wires, materials, testing, air resistance, spectrum optical filtering, and some new improvised apparatus. (PS)

Purpose of this paper is to report the feasibility of a national educational experiment and to present the summative findings regarding Project Physics, a physics course for high school students. (Authors)

By using minimal equipment it is possible to demonstrate Faraday's Law. An electronic desk calculator enables sophomore students to solve a difficult mathematical expression for the induced EMF. Polaroid pictures of the plot of induced EMF, together with the computer facility, enables students to make comparisons. (PS)

Describes a physics teaching approach used in England characterized by involving students with most of the work and utilizing teachers' time for conferences with each student about twice a week. Individual's progress was evaluated during conferences and joint sessions. (PS)

Describes an approach used by Stanford University to teach physics to Mexican- American high school sophomores who lack academic motivation but show intellectual promise. Discusses the remedial tutorial program, the volunteer lecture series, and the student laboratory projects. Explains the social aspects of the program, as well as its financing.…

Describes an experiment with a special section of a terminal" physics survey. The experiment consisted of systematically removing as much structure as feasible while using a lecture format. Evaluation indicates student enthusiasm and performance increase as structure disappears. (Author/TS)

Laboratory activities give students an opportunity to interact with computers in modes ranging from remote terminal use in laboratory experimentation to the direct hands-on use of a small digital computer with disk memory and on-line plotter, and finally to the use of a large computer under closed-shop operation.
