Laboratory-Based Teaching and the Physics Innovations Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning
Lambourne, Robert
European Journal of Physics, v28 n3 pS29-S36 May 2007
Developments in the laboratory-based teaching of physics and astronomy are resulting from the collaboration between conventional and distance teaching universities. The collaboration, piCETL, is one of the Centres for Excellence in Teaching and Learning established as a result of a broad initiative by the Higher Education Funding Council for England. The initiative, the piCETL collaboration and some of its work on laboratory-based teaching are all described.
