Cassidy, John – 1991
This book is written for people who tend to sit toward the back of the classroom during scientific lectures. It assumes that students remember nothing of what happened in their science classes. The book is divided into seven sections: (1) Magnetism; (2) Bending Light Waves; (3) Bacterial Stories; (4) Light Wave Craziness; (5) Homemade Science; (6)…

Wolf, David A. – Science PROBE!, 1991
Information on how a shortwave radio can be used to make empirical observations about solar activity and the Earth's geomagnetic field is provided. How to interpret transmissions of shortwave propagation information, weather conditions, and highly accurate time signals from shortwave stations is discussed. (KR)

Using Electricity. Study Guide. Unit I2. ZIM-SCI, Zimbabwe Secondary School Science Project. Year 2.
Chidume, Kwashira – 1983
The Zimbabwe Secondary School Science Project (ZIM-SCI) developed student study guides, corresponding teaching guides, and science kits for a low-cost science course which could be taught during the first 2 years of secondary school without the aid of qualified teachers and conventional laboratories. This ZIM-SCI study guide presents activities…

Brophy, M.; Fryars, M. – 1983
Seychelles Integrated Science (SIS), a 3-year laboratory-based science program for students (ages 11-15) in upper primary grades 7, 8, and 9, was developed from an extensive evaluation and modification of previous P7-P9 materials. This P8 SIS unit focuses on: (1) elementary concepts in magnetic theory and the role magnets and magnetism play in…
