INTRODUCTION:
Among the resources available for the
planning of science program are the
courses of study prepared by
International study groups. This will
help to understand the approaches
used in the improvement of science
education in different countries.

Committeewas inaugurated atMITin
1956 with the objective to review
introductoryPhysics

designing and monitoring improvements.

Aims:
1.To present a view of modern physics to the
student.
2. In order to achieve this aim, the committee
has devoted its efforts to develop a course
involving scientific inquiry on the part of the
students, equally important, that the student
see Physics as an unfinished and continuing
activity.
3. Stresses on understanding of facts, how to
use them for interpreting more complex
physical phenomena.
Features of PSSC:
PSSC Course contains four closely
interconnected parts distributed in 34
chapters.

Materials developed

1.Text book
2. Laboratory Manual
3. Teachers guide
4. Supplementary materials
5. 16 mm colour movie films
6. Series of Chemistry monographs.
CONCLUSION:
P.S.S.C:
Teaching materials created by the PSSC
were designed to emphasize fundamental
principles
in
physics,
encouraging
engagement
and
understanding
as
opposed to memorization, making the
subject more attractive to students.
CHEM.Study:
Topics in chemistry education might include
understanding
how
students
learn
chemistry, how best to teach chemistry,
and how to improve learning outcomes by
changing teaching methods and appropriate
training of chemistry instructors, within
many modes, including classroom lecture,
demonstrations, and laboratory activities.
