| Summary: | This paper reviews the objectives of physics practicals in physics education in relation to the
hilosophy of open and distance learning programme. The various issues that arise in the
implementation of physics experiment based on an existing practical model are presented. Two
major concerns are the effectiveness of the practical sessions and sustaining the fundamentals
of the open and distance learning programme. A new practical physics model is then proposed,
which enables students to experience physics experiments without violating the open and
distance learning programme fundamentals. (Authors' abstract) |
