Revised Nuffield Physics Teachers’ Guide Years 1 and 2
The Teachers’ Guides for Revised Nuffield Physics sought to convey the spirit of the approach while providing all the technical details for the experiments (based on the Guides to Experiments in the first edition). The guides suggested a language for talking about ideas in physics at an appropriate level at each stage of the course. The guides did not include answers to the many questions in the parallel student texts. Many of the experiments have been re-presented, with modern guidance on health and safety, on the Institute of Physics website.
