Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electrical Engineering Laboratory Experiments If the student taking an electrical engineering laboratory course is required to rely on his own resources, exert his own initiative and do some original thinking, that course will stand out in his memory as one of the few in which he really accomplished the end in view; namely, a natural growth of reasoning power, the power of keen and accurate observation, the ability to analyze and draw conclusions and a knowledge of the fundamentals involved in the construction and operation of electrical machinery. To make laboratory teaching effective, the student should be carefully supervised at the beginning of his course in order that he may learn as rapidly as possible the fundamentals of electrical testing, and use them as his tools for the more advanced work. He should then be assigned work which will require original thinking, and be required to rely more or less upon his own resources. He should be encouraged to hunt up some problem in which he is particularly interested and tackle it as a real research proposition. In this way he will unconsciously exercise his initiative and prefer to rely upon his own resources. During the preparation of this book the writers have had the above philosophy constantly in mind and believe the book to be sufficiently flexible for adaptation to almost any Electrical Engineering Laboratory Course. This book is the result of an extended period of growth and experience. The original notes were written by Professor R. R. Lawrence and published in neostyle form in 1903 for use in the Lowell Institute for Industrial Foremen. These notes were later revised and enlarged by Professor Lawrence in 1907, and again revised and enlarged by him and published in book form in 1914. Professors Lawrence and C. W. Green in 1914 took a portion of the material, revised it and published it for use in connection with the courses in Electrical Engineering Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
