Fields

An interactive approach to fields that supports your a level physics teaching. Focus Educational software is designed by teaching professionals for the UK classroom. Focus on Fields covers this area of the AS and A level syllabus by using:

• interactive models
  
  
• animated sequences
  
  
• simulated experiments

Integrated with reference sections using 'internet-style' hypertext and photos, where the theory is explained and relevant formulae are derived. Importantly, the entire package is structured to integrate seamlessly into the curriculum. Popular with students, this CD can be used:

• to illustrate theory
  
  
• to practice data acquisition and data processing, via simulated experiments
  
  
• as an aid to revision
