A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This laboratory manual is intended to outline a course in physics for secondary schools, adapted equally well to preparation for college and to the immediate requirements of everyday life. With this end in view the author has combined under the title of this book a large number of the more practical exercises recently developed in the high-school laboratory with a selected number of exercises from the standard list, in such a manner as to conserve the best elements of the college course while emphasizing the latest and most approved ideas of the modern school. The standard exercises have been restated in the interest of clearness and for the sake of maintaining the spirit of the book throughout, but so far as possible standard apparatus has been made use of in this part of the work. The newer exercises involve the use of commercial apparatus, easily procured though varying slightly in form in different localities. It is not intended that all the exercises should be handled in precisely the same manner: some (6, 14, 23, 33, 36, 57, 59) are best adapted to the group method; others (1-4, 7, 10, 20, 21, 26, 37, 45) to the individual method, and a few (11, 12, 27, 36) to the method of classroom demonstration. Wide latitude is given to the individual teacher in each case. An abundance of suggestions for home work, dealing with the most useful applications of the principles of physics to the affairs of everyday life, is a prominent feature of the course. The beginner in science must be guided carefully in his early experiments if he is to develop habits of careful observation, clear thinking, and orderly presentation of results. The exercises in this manual have been carefully designed and the instructions definitely stated, in order that the pupil may see clearly the end in view and the method of procedure, with the least possible amount of assistance on the part
