The Electric Circuit as a System: A New Approach.
Hartel, H.
European Journal of Science Education, v4 n1 p45-55 Jan-Mar 1982
Traditionally, the terms "current,""voltage," and "resistance" are introduced in a linear sequence according to structure of the discipline and based on measurement operations. A new approach is discussed, the terms being introduced simultaneously in a qualitative way, using the system aspect of the electric circuit as an integrative base. (Author/SK)
