Appearance of the "Optics" Section of General Physics Course
V.M. Grabov, S.Yu. Trofimova
Saint-Petersburg, Herzen Russian State Pedagogical University

The approach to study of the section "Optics" of a course of general physics directed on representation of its laws as integral part of system of the laws of physics, on formation at the students integral of a physical picture of the world and system, reflecting it, of physical laws is developed. The logic of the section, in which optics appears as a science about substantially nonequilibrum and irreversible processes, is considered. In the offered approach, the optics more effectively used for preparation for studying and recognition by the students of quantum physics.

A century of the Planck constant
V.P. Milantiev
Peoples' Friendship University of Russia

The history of discovery of the Planck constant and the origin of the quantum concept in physics is presented.

Educational Problems of 21 Century: Physics as a Universal Educational Subject

L.G. Antoshina, V.I. Nedelko, B.A. Strukov
Faculty of Physics, M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University,
Lenin Hills, Moscow GSP-2, 119992, Russia

In this paper it is proposed to use physics as a universal educational subject. In such a representation the leaving of physics has a double goal: on the one hand, the standard learning of the subject knowledge of physics is kept that is necessary for the exploiting it in a professional activity; on the other hand, the knowledge of physics can be used as a background for an assimilation of the information set-up. The latter is important for the informational mobility, i.e. for a capability to get, to interpret and to use new information in the different fields of knowledge. The content of the course of physics is considered that provides such a type of training and the method of expounding of the training materials.

Educational and Methodical Provision of Subject Physics for Natural Sciences and Mathematical Specialties of Pedagogical Universities According to GOS VPO (State Educational Standard for Higher Professional Education) Second Generation

Moscow State Pedagogical University

The article is dedicated to the problem of improving physical education at the mathematical and natural sciences departments of pedagogical universities and creating scientific and methodical provision for subject physics (natural sciences' branch) according to GOS VPO (state educational standard for higher professional education) second generation.

The Study of Electromagnetism on Object Activity in Electrodynamics
A.V. Kupavtsev
Moscow State Technical University named after N. Bauman

The study of physical object activity in electrodynamics allow to remove well-known deficiencies of tradition course of physics in technical university. The impotent methods of this activity are systematized and peculiarities of activity technology in physical education are opened.

Peculiarities of Teaching Physics for Specialty "Biotechnology"

L.M. Korenkova, U.V. Kostysheva
Moscow State University of Applied Biotechnology (MSUAB)

The main way to improve the assimilation of physics, as we believe, is to raise the students` interest in learning physics. For this purpose we try to connect the account of physics with our students` future specialty. Lectures are given on the course "Physics and elements of biophysics", where we give some knowledge about biophysics of microsubjects in every division of physics. To conduct the practical lessons we created a number of tasks, which are adapted to specialty "Biotechnology" as well.

Laboratory Work of the Profound Research in Fraunhofer s Diffraction on a Splint
N.Ja. Molotkov, V.B. Divak, O.V. Lomakina
Tambov State University

This laboratory work as a practical work in general physics on wave optics is arranged in the centimeter electromagnetic wave band. Fraunhofer s diffraction is being examined experimentally on a splint as well as on the splint half square of which is covered by the plate causing half wave - length. The results observed during the experiment will correspond to the diffraction theory.

Demonstration Fundamental Properties of Volume Holograms

Creating and Using of the "Converter" for Making the Computer Programs for Test the Knowledge of the General Physics
A.S. Alyoshkin, A.N. Gusarov, D.O. Zhukov
Moscow State Academy of the Instrument and Information Technologies.

Designed software package "Converter", which greatly accelerates and relieves a making the databases for computer systems of testing the knowledge's of students and skills of deciding the tasks on the course general physicists. Executed development allows during several minutes convert any MS Word files in the format of databases.

Electronic Laboratory Works of General Physics for the Students of Technical High Schools

Moscow State Academy of the Instrument and Information Technologies

The package of the computer programs for performance of laboratory jobs is developed, in which are provided change of meanings of experimental parameters in wide ranges, and also the check of knowledge of a theoretical material on each laboratory job with the help of the test, that allows the students to study in more details features of the observable phenomena and to check up a level of knowledge acquired during training. The built - in system of testing does not allow to proceed to the following laboratory job, if the result of testing is less than a through passage number, which the teacher nominates.
The given software covers a course of general physics and can be used as the removed users through a network INTERNET in open and remote education, and in a local network of higher educational institutions.

Development of the Methodology of General Physics Course in Pedagogical Higher Educational Establishment
G.A. Bordovsky, S.Yu. Trofimova
Saint Petersburg, Herzen Russian State Pedagogical University

The problem of content and logic of construction of general physics course in the Pedagogical Higher Educational Establishment is considered. The basis of the approach is representation of the course as about the higher structured system. Them content and structure determined by the limited number of parameters. The principles of conformity of condition of science and social culture are considered in the capacity of such parameters. It was shown that the modern filling of these principles cause to the new level of development of the methodology of general physics course construction, which is characterized by the organically introduction to the course of elements of physics of unstable conditions and nonequilibrum processes. The character of presentation of one such question nonlinear mechanic oscillations is analyzed in the existing textbooks on the course of general physics.
