Extract

Several authors have recently discussed in the Gazette the place of experimentin the teaching of mathematics. Although it is true that most students can visualise the behaviour of a mechanical system quite well from a proper description or a good drawing, I find that all students, and particularly engineers, seem to be greatly stimulated by an occasional demonstration related to their work.
