Вариационный принцип Ньютона связан с существенно иной парадигмой, чем у переоткрывшего его Мопертюи, а именно: в природе реализуются движения, более устойчивые по сравнению с другими возможными.

Формулировка и обоснование вариационного принципа столь простыми средствами анализа позволяют использовать его в университетском курсе общей физики при изложении механики, электромагнетизма, оптики, атомной физики, способствуя его системности, цельности и фундаментализации.

The first part of this paper provides historical background and a discussion of the evolution of university physics education in the U.S.A. including significant developments of the last decade, which point towards the future. The second part involves the audience in an educational experiment.

K.L.Johnston

Courses for the students in non-science related professions have been a focal point for new curriculum development which recommends the modification of some traditional teaching practices in physics, not only teach physics, but teach students. The challenge in the university physics education community of preparing students to think like scientists extends beyond better curricula. An overview of the interface between these challenges and the physics classroom is discussed.

V.A.Aleshkevich

A new textbook on optics for universities is presented: S.A.Akhmanov and S.Yu.Nikitin. Physical Optics. Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1997 (500 pages). Providing a picture of modern physical optics as an expert would see it, this clear exposition of the most useful ideas of optics is accessible to undergraduate students. This textbook covers both classical and modern optics and is based on a course offered by Moscow State University in recent years - the main objective of which was to provide a comprehensive presentation of the fundamentals of the subject. Containing a much higher proportion of topical material than conventional textbooks the contents include electromagnetic theory of light, optical radiation physics and the physics of interaction of radiation with matter. Among the contemporary topics discussed most comprehensively are lasers, nonlinear optics, and new methods of optical spectroscopy. Readership: senior undergraduates and graduate students of physics. Teachers and research workers in optics.

The analyses of the contemporary society shows that the main goal of the higher education is to provide the knowledge, capable to ensure the personality to reach the success in any field of his or her activities.

Knowledge for the individual is the information through getting which the individual form the image, i.e. interpretation of the information, corresponding to which the personality feels, thinks and behaves. It is the ability to form images that eventually determines the success.

The problem of teaching how to form and then use the images is highly difficult, as it requires grasping the vast amount of differently oriented and hence uneasily perceptible information. We propose the solution of the problem of education in this direction not as a whole but taking physics an example.

In our report we cover the following problems: what should be the requirements to the discipline the notions of which are used for the formation of adequate images; what should be the way of constructing the course able both to teach how to form images and to master the concepts of physics.

We consider the structure of the new course "Physics Images" and the ways of its realization under contemporary conditions.

The problems of teaching physics within the modern requirements for the students majoring in engineering are observed in the following report. The low level of knowledge of physics and mathematics the students obtain while in high schools makes it difficult to teach the course of physics according to the higher educational institution's requirements. There occurs a necessity of using within traditional forms such various methods of the educational process' activization as:

a) constant updating the work programs of the course to combine both fundamental and applied aspects of physics;

b) including the most significant chapters into the list of discussions for the seminars;

c) using novel informational technologies for practical work in laboratories;

d) developing courses form which list the students can chose those that include chapters regarding the basics of nowadays; technologies.

The study process organization demands constant research work in the field of methods of education. The experience gained from this work is discussed in the report.

Nowadays, the laws of the world around are studied aiming to use them in professional activity. However, all the human activity is governed by his inner world - the world of his subjective estimates and emotions. Both the knowledge of the external world should be achieved by a special education, and the knowledge of the internal world should be also achieved by a special education. Individuality, subjectivity of the internal world and inevitability of its agreement with the external world determines the specific character of education.

The report deals with the analysis of appearing problems and with the methods of their resolution. It is shown that an effective method to do this is a course of lectures, the main principle of which is to show the world seen by people who created it. It is proposed this course to be something of an anthology containing both the knowledge of various branches of science and the knowledge beyond science. The specific course and the possibility of its realization under contemporary conditions are considered.

New method of activating in physics education is discussed.

N. I. Evseevichev

In this paper, we justify the assertion that Newton's mechanics is based on the variation principle stated in "Principia" as the law of inertia. Using the methods of analysis that there known to Newton (without making use of the variation formalism), we show that the equation of motion (the second law) follows from the variation principal.

Newton's variation principle is related to a paradigm essentially different from what of Moperthuis who rediscovered it later. Namely, those motions are realized in the nature that are more stable than other possible ones.

Statement and justification of the variation principle by very simple methods of analysis make possible to use it in the university courses of general physics (in particular, in mechanics, electromagnetism and atomic physics). This makes the course more systematic, consistent and fundamental.

The methodical problems of discussion of concept "vector magnetic potential" (VMP) in the general physics course are considered. The examples of the description with the help VMP of a magnetic field of a stationary electrical current, both in free space, and at presence magnetics are given. The physical sense of VMP is opened and the "reality" of a magnetic field of VMP is emphasized. The examples of VMP measurement and also account of VMP and use it for the description of observable physical effects are resulted. The work is intended for the teachers reading lecture and conducting seminar at a general physics course for physical specialities.

A simple radiofrequency electronic model is considered which imitates the EPR-Bohm pair correlation of stochastic signals and the fulfillment of the Bell inequality. These questions are of great physical importance, and the numerous optical experiments of related type were performed. But the substance of the problem is difficult for understanding in spite of repeated attempts of the popularization. The electronic model is formed the basis of the training work for the students of the quantum radiophysics chair. The analysis of the model helps to grasp the distinction between the classical and quantum correlation in EPR experiments. The property of stochastic phase synchronism of degenerated parametric radiofrequency generators is used in the model.

Method for teaching the diffraction self-reproduction effect for light field of spatio-periodical structure is discussed. This brilliant effect of classical wave optics, that was discovered in the first half of XIX century by an English physicist H.F.Talbot, is undeservedly beyond the programs of most educational courses. Nowadays, a very perspective branch of modern laser physics is based on this effect.

It is given in this report the physical explanation of this effect and the material for its lecture teaching on base of Fresnel diffraction theory in frames of General physics educational programs. The scheme and methodical description of physical experiment on a lecture, visually showing main conformities to the self-reproduction effect are presented. Current applications of Talbot effect are shortly discussed.

The study of courses of total physics occupies a leading place in the process of teaching in a physics department. The important element of teaching process is a control of acquiring knowledge. As well as traditional forms of a knowledge control (colloquium, quizzes, etc.) a multiple-choice test had a wide practice in the last years. This method allows rapidly expose the objective picture of students' knowledge and corrects a teaching process. Tests for a current control of total physics knowledge are presented in this work. This method of control has the advantage in comparison with the traditional methods as work experience has showed.

The dividing of the practical training lesson in physics into 2 parts - theoretical and practical -based on PC assistance is presented. Control measures are included into each part and looked like current control. The main points of the theoretical material were repeated in the theoretical part and the assimilation of the stated material as well as the step-by-step method of problems solving. The practical part of the lesson controlled the process and the result of the problem solved.

Two or three lessons a term were devoted to the border testing of the results of knowledge assimilation by students (4 or 5 lessons period). This testing lasts appropriately half of the lesson and includes about 10 tasks to control the formulae knowledge and ability to use them. Testing at the end of the term makes total control. The developed computer Test Shell provided the computer support of practical training lessons and test control at every mentioned stage of students' teaching.

Development of new information technologies and growth of material basis of Petrozavodsk university allow to introduce the elements of an effective system of distance learning (DL) into the process of physics teaching. We consider that DL is the realization of tutorial process with use of possibilities of modern computer facilities and nets.

In PetrSU the elements of DL are used in all forms of tutoring. For today the basic gains are concentrated on the developments on section "Mechanics". We were created and located on PetrSU Web the server the following materials: methodical support of course "Mechanics"; separate themes of practical occupations supplied with the problems and the step by step instructions of their solution; tests which ensure operating check of the students knowledge of an investigated material as trained and as teacher.

At the same time the lectures electronic course is developed and the virtual physical laboratory is created.

Afterwards all separate elements of DL will be joined in uniform course. This course will be available from open access Internet classes and home computers.
