Abstract	This UNESCO source book on teaching physics in schools provides a synthesis of views and policies prevalent throughout the world with respect to physics education. The book's contents are contributed by educators from several nations who have been able to give an international outlook in the discussion of various aspects of physics education. The first chapter discusses the aims of teaching physics. Subsequent chapters deal with the application of psychological knowledge about learning, motivation, mental development and special problems in developing countries. To put teaching of physics in the correct perspective, two major portions of the book describe the approaches to content and method of teaching. Topics listed in these sections include: The History of Science and its Place in a Physics Course, Physics and Technology, Physics and Mathematics, and Physics and Computer Education. The last two parts of the book deal with other aspects of physics instruction, such as Physics Laboratories, Physics Apparatus, Mechanisms for Curriculum Reform, and Evaluation and Examinations. One chapter describes teacher preparation. An appendix describes the worldwide physics education improvement projects. (PS)
