    Abstract

    The work examines the problems which University of Aston first year students heave in their Dynamics Course and gives reasons for the choice of audio tapes and booklets in the form of a programmed learning course.

    It demonstrates the necessity for developing these programmed units of the course in specific stages. The student is guided so that he uses the learning hierarchy of dynamic theory, demonstration of the method end then given further guided practice leading to the completion of entire problems.

    Some conclusions arising from the whole work are noted, together with some favourable comments by students. The completed course booklets and tape scripts are given as appendices 1 to 10.
