In this work three examples of textbook circuits (resistor-capacitor, resistor-inductor and resistor-inductor-capacitor) have been modeled by employing the Euler method for the approximate solution of differential equations using algorithms implemented in the "Python" programming language. The aim of this work was to demonstrate how…

Whilst the significant role mentors play within ITE has been emphasised in English policy context, there appears to be limited consideration of subject-specificity of mentoring practices within the literature. One key mechanism for trainee teacher development is written lesson observation feedback, but there is a concern that it is often generic…
