Abstract :
Summary from only given, as follows. It is widely acknowledged that the basic introductory E&M course is in trouble its concepts and techniques are novel and difficult, the allowed time is insufficient, and the range of topics to be covered is great and expanding. This paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of introducing computer-numerical solutions into the course. While such a now topic would seem only to increase the compression, an approach is suggested that n-minimizes the additional required time. Experience indicates that the PC approach raises student interest and participation so that much of the course material is learned more effectively and course coverage and goals are maintained.
