摘要:
Many electronics teachers are asking whether the electronics specialist/enthusiast has a future role in the context of the National Curriculum. Yet more are seeming somewhat depressed by the apparent lack of a role for the subject pre-16. This concern and pessimism is not a view I hold; indeed I feel that much of the outstanding work that has been done by electronics teachers over the past few years is embodied and strengthened in the current (March 1990) proposals.

摘要:
At a point where it is anticipated that there will be a sharp increase in demand for resources as a result of NCC proposals for information technology, it is fitting to recount an example of expansive development.

摘要:
Many science courses now introduce ‘electronics’, including work on digital logic gates. This work is then extended at GCSE level to include combinations of logic circuits leading to an understanding of bistables. However, it is usually left to more advanced physics or specialist electronics courses to explain the operation of astables and other sequential logic circuits.

摘要:
This article describes the power station simulator project which ran between 1981 and 1986 at St. Leonard's RC Comprehensive School, Durham. It arose from a chance remark by Mike Gardiner, a civil engineer with Durham County Council Highways Department, to Dennis Harrington, the Head of Science at the school. In an effort to demonstrate a ‘real-world’ application of A-level physics to pupils, it was suggested that an extra-curricular project be initiated involving the design and construction of an electronic simulation of a coal-fired power station. A power station was chosen because it encapsulates many of the aspects of A-level physics: AC theory, rotational dynamics, kinetic theory and thermodynamics.

摘要:
The recent interest in so-called ‘intelligent’ computer interfaces in no way suggests a decline in the need many users have for a simpler system, enabling them to perform output-only control activities with the help of a wellproduced but inexpensive interface device. I have noticed, for example, that the emphasis placed on control applications in technology syllabuses makes practical experience of the basic principles involved almost essential to a sound understanding of this part of the course.

摘要:
Although not electronics-based, this article is a fine example of the way project work should be tackled. We reproduce here some of the illustrations from Mr Davidson's project report. Other illustrations and notes are available from the Editorial Office.

摘要:
The advent of the National Curriculum in Science has for the first time delivered a formal statement of the requirement for school students in the 11–16 age range to have experience of the use of computers to collect data in experimental arrangements.

摘要:
The concept of time is an essential one for young children to come to grips with, and much practical work is done in schools to achieve this. In their activities, pupils use a variety of devices to help them measure time. In this article I show how they can harness the ultimate timing tool of the primary classroom—the microcomputer.
