Re: First EM lab

[Jack Uretsky <jlu@HEP.ANL.GOV>]

        I have some interactive "Dialogue Inducing" (a la Hake) E&M labs.
The first ones involve scotch tape and pith balls, as I recall.  I also
made use of a Wimshurst machine.  If you're interested, I'll try and post
them.
                                Regards,
                                        Jack
