Excerpt from A Laboratory Manual of Alternating Currents IN composing a set of notes intended for laboratory use the writer has to consider two possible methods of treating the subject. One is to describe explicitly the different tests to be carried out, giving diagrams of connections, meters to be used and readings to be taken, and even giving the form of the log for keeping the laboratory data. Practically nothing is said regarding the theory involved in the test, the reasons for taking the various measurements, necessity of holding certain quanti ties constant and allowing others to vary, etc. This method of treatment makes the performance of the laboratory work extremely simple for the student as well as for the instructor. It is probably for this reason that most laboratory texts are written in this style. Such a method of presenting the subject to the student, however, necessitates very little thinking on his part. The connection of the apparatus and taking of read ings are reduced to a more or less mechanical operation, and even the keen student does not get from his laboratory work nearly as much material for study as he should.
