The physics courses at University College, Cardiff are being completely revised and the first year of the new course ended in July 1967. This paper describes the background of the faculty of science degree scheme and goes on to discuss both the general philosophy and the detailed planning of the new physics course. It is emphasized that such a process of revision is a continuing process which must take into account the changing pattern of secondary education.
In 1970 a group of university physics departments discussed the matching problems that seemed to be posed by the growing diversity of A level syllabuses
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
