Summarizes classifications of educational objectives, types of test items, and principles underlying the construction of tests. Indicates that a combination of essay and objective tests is preferable in the overall evaluation of a course. (CC)

Describes a simple method of demonstrating the Bernoulli effect, by spinning a length of rubber tubing around one's head. A manometer attached to the stationary end of the tube indicates a reduction in pressure. (JR)

Discusses the course content and instructional methods desirable in teaching modern physics in the secondary school. Argues that physics must be taught in a humanistic manner to replace the desiccated, technological, dehumanized, and generally irrelevant manner in which it has been commonly taught. (JR)

Discusses the arrangement, specifications, and operation of a setup designed for use as a student project to record radio storms, continuous level of the quiet sun, and scientific satellites operating near the amateur 2-m band. Included is an example of records of solar activity during 1968-73. (CC)

Discusses the use of self-paced study programs to teach physics to deaf students through lip movements, sign language, and fingerspelling. Describes several instructional problems encountered in the teaching-learning process. (CC)

Describes the use of Marchant 1016PR with a magnetic tape reader, Monroe 1665 with a punchcard reader, and Hewlett-Packard 9820A with an X-Y plotter to conduct introductory physics laboratory programs. Indicates that the course allows more physics to be done in the same amount of time. (CC)

Discusses the agenda, arrangements, and costs of a regional meeting designed to help seniors in planning careers. Suggests the physics groups sponsor similar meetings in their regions. (CC)
