Hi all-
It is certainly an alleged fact, because John alleged it in his
e-mail. It may also be a fact, I have no way of telling from John's
e-mail. Nor, incidentally have I found the so-called "experiment" that
John claims to have 'referenced".
John's posting raisesan interesting question in the field of
Physics Teaching - to the extent that there is such a field. Namely,
under what conditios have I performed a reportable "experiment". I have
an algebra test that I've given to several classes of first year college
physics students. Am I justified in reporting the average grade achieved
on the test ? And would the editor of AJP, for example, be justified in
publishing it? If so, under what circumstance?
Regards,
Jack
