field transformations



Is there a way of deriving the relativistic E and B field
transformations that would be suitable for an introductory e&m course?
Four vectors and tensors are out. Griffiths' electrodynamics text shows
one way that relies on an understanding of Lorentz contraction. Are
there other ways?

Cheers,
