Abstract :
The rapidly increasing complexity of radio engineering practice and the employment of very-high frequencies necessitates more thorough and intensive training of radio-engineering students. Greater facility in mathematics will be required, but should be accompanied by adequate correlation between the mathematics and the physics of the problem. The use of animated motion-picture films, working models, or static models and diagrams suitable for textbook use, are discussed as one means of improving educational methods.
