Discusses the philosophy and organization of an introductory college physics course that emphasizes laboratory experiments. Also presents a brief outline of the laboratory work. (MLH)

Describes an introductory laboratory physics course covering dynamics, fields, and waves. The course involves six hourrs of laboratory work and six hours of self-study every two weeks. Understanding concepts rather than laboratory techniques is stressed. (MLH)

Describes a laboratory teaching technique in which a single topic (in this case, bipolar junction transistors) is studied over a period of weeks under the supervision of one staff member, who also designs the laboratory work. (MLH)

Discusses the use of programmed scripts, textbooks, films, and cassette tapes to conduct a self-instruction laboratory course. Indicates the presence of marked positive effects on the development of the students' ability to plan their own experiments. (CC)

Describes some of the general principles involved in the planning of a teaching sequence. Discusses in more detail one example of a complete syllabus including major concepts and experiments. (Author/TS)

Provides the syllabus for an advanced level (A-level) electronics course in which communication computer and feedback systems are analyzed. (CP)
