Revised Nuffield Physics Pupils’ Text Year 3

The Revised Nuffield Physics books for students were not conventional textbooks. In line with the aim of teaching for understanding, the books contained instructions for experiments and a large number of questions. The text for Year 3 did not include answers to questions but it did include a little more of the language of physics and some explanations. The book included step-by-step guidance for drawing ray diagrams in optics in the spirit of the experimental approach to the topic.
