Physics 3(Electricity and Magnetism)
PRE-REQUISITE: FSc Level Physics

CREDITE HOURS: 3

INTRODUCTION:
Understanding electromagnetic fields is essential to our understanding the
world around us. The most fundamental processes in nature, from the forces that
determine the structure of atoms and molecules to the phenomena of light to nerve
impulses in living systems, depend on electric and magnetic fields.

It is fundamental to current and future technologies. Motors, power generation


and transmission, electronics, sensors, and communication – both wired and wireless –
involve the manipulation of electric or magnetic fields. There are few advances in
technology that can be made without the use of electronic circuits or electric and
magnetic fields.

COURSE OBJECTIVE:
The objectives of this course are to teach the laws of electromagnetism from
our everyday experience by specific examples of how electromagnetic phenomena
manifest themselves. We want to be able to:

1. Describe, in words, the ways in which various concepts in electromagnetism


come into play in particular situations
2. Represent these electromagnetic phenomena and fields mathematically in
those situations
3. Predict outcomes in other similar situations
4. The overall goal is to use the scientific method to come to understand the
enormous variety of electromagnetic phenomena in terms of a few relatively
simple laws.

COURSE OUTLINE:
Electric field of continuous charge distributions, dipole in an electric field,
Applications of Gauss’ law, calculating the field from the potential, capacitor with
dielectric, electric current density and Ohm’s law, semiconductors and
superconductors, magnetic force on a charged particle, magnetic force on a current,
torque on a current loop, magnetic dipole, Biot-Savart Law, Ampere’s law, Faraday’s
Law, Lenz’s Law, motional E.M.F, induced electric fields, Gauss’ law for magnetism,
origin of atomic and nuclear magnetism, magnetization, magnetic materials, induced
magnetic fields and displacement current, Maxwell’s equations, generating an electro-

18
magnetic wave, traveling waves and Maxwell’s equations, energy transport and the
Poynting vector.

Course: School, Community & Teacher
Credit Hours: 3

Introduction The purpose of this course is to provide Student Teachers with a strong foundation
for understanding the relationship between and among teachers, the school, and the families and
community that support the school. Basic conceptualizations of educational institutions and the
role of the teacher in relating to these institutions will be considered. Student Teachers will also
explore how cultural, social, and historical forces have shaped their understanding of the
relationship teachers have with schools, communities, and families in Pakistan. The course will
explore the social context of schooling and examine how the work of teachers is nested within
school and community. It will provide orientation to the process of socialization in schools and
how social factors affect education.
Objectives: Student Teacher are expected to have opportunity to put this knowledge into
practice in the accompanying one-credit laboratory by studying a school and its community, so
that as teachers, they can mobilize support for educational programmes and contribute positively
to their communities. Practical application of the course will be emphasized as Student Teachers
explore teaching and learning within both the school and the community. They will identify
strategies, practices, and relationships that have proven fruitful within familiar contexts, and learn
how to identify and respond to challenges in school, community, and teacher relationships. Student
Teachers will identify how culture, gender, special needs, equity and equality, and collaborative
working conditions affect the school and community.

Course details

Planning a good research project

1. How to choose a good research topic?


Stage 1: What are the broad themes? , Stage 2: What are the interesting topics
within those themes? , Stage 3: What questions might can be asked about those
topics? Stage 4: Choose a question and check its viability, Stage 5: Making final
choice. The last stage is to making final choice of project. Start project with a research
question.

2. Administration of the research project


Ist most important step is approval of the topic

I- Making the research proposal


Components of the research proposal.
1- Research title/problem and justification.
2- Research hypothesis/ Question.
3- The main research question that the student will be focusing on, with, perhaps,
a number of sub-questions.
4- The background to the study – why it is an important and interesting topic to
study.
5- A brief background literature review. This should show that the student have
read a number of relevant books and papers so that student understand how his
topic relates to the current knowledge and issues in the field.
6- A proposed methodology, that is, how student intend to undertake the study,
what methods he will use, what data he will collect and how he will analyse the
data. If this includes any form of experimental work or the use of any data
collection or analysis equipment you need to provide a detailed and precise list
of what he will need. He also needs to explain why this methodology and this
instrument is the best way to study this topic.

3
7- A proposed time schedule for the project, with key dates and the timing of each
phase of the project.
NOTE: What if student’s proposal is rejected? He should regard a rejection as
saving him from big problems later on. Teachers have a very good idea of what
will ‘work’ and what will not, what is achievable and what is not. If they suggest
student think again it is because they believe he cannot produce a thesis or
dissertation of the required standard from what he is proposing. So, take the
advice they give, and submit another proposal.

I- Stages of the Research (process of the project)


Student need to start by thinking through what are the stages of his project. For
most research projects there are ten stages:

Stage 1 – Choosing the project / Introduction


Topic has already been selected. Introduction related to the research topic briefly will
be given in this section.

Stage 2 – Initial literature review


The literature review is a critical early stage in students’ project. A literature review has
many purposes. It enables student to find out what research has been undertaken in the
field, what is ‘known’ and what the important questions are that others are investigating
or have suggested for research. It helps student to understand the history of his field, to
know how ideas have developed, changed, appeared and disappeared over time. Student
will become aware of the range of methodologies that have been used to research his
field, both in the past and in the present, and he should start to develop a critical view
of the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches. It will also enable the
student to discover who else is working in the field and what they are working on. Most
importantly, though, it will help the student to look at his initial ideas for his research
and develop and refine them to produce the project that he will undertake. It is almost
the most important stage of the project, for if he does this thoroughly and well he will
be saved many potential problems later on.

Stage 3 – finalize the research questions


Ideally student’s research questions will emerge from the literature review. The
literature review will have shown him what is already known in the field and what
important topics need to be researched.

Stage 4 – Choosing and developing the methodology


Whatever his subject and field, there will be a range of different research methods
available to him. At this stage he needs to choose the best approach to enable him to
answer his research question. Many students though, unfortunately, start with an idea
of the methods they want to use and then apply them to their research question whether
or not they are the best way forward. The correct way forward, of course, is to read and
reflect very broadly on possible research methods and then choose what is most
appropriate, even if this involves him in learning new approaches or techniques.

Stage 5 – Piloting the methodology


Whatever method the student use, he will need to his methodology. Piloting is
practising, checking that he can use the method correctly and that it will work in the

4
circumstances in which he is using it to provide usable data. Piloting usually suggests
changes and modifications to the methods he is using, sometimes large, sometimes
small, and so is an essential process.

Stage 6 – Organising the data collection


Do not be put off by the word ‘data’. By “data” it is meant is the evidence the student
will use to arrive at his conclusions, and there are many types of data. His data could be
experimental results, field data or survey data or they could come from direct
observations of social situations. The data could be quantitative, qualitative or a
combination of both types. Stage 6 involves making the arrangements to collect that
data.

Stage 7 – Data collection


Collecting the data can be a short or a long process – for example a project on the
behaviour of kindergarten students may take many months of detailed observation and
recording, while some experimental projects may take only a few weeks or even days
to complete.

Stage 8 – Data analysis


Data analysis includes the systematic organising of the data and its presentation in a
form that readers of the students’ project can understand. It also includes the
interpretation of the data to identify the important ideas or new bits of knowledge that
they reveal. Each discipline will have descriptive and analytical techniques, ranging
from statistical analysis to computer modelling to presentational methods to qualitative
analysis. Student will need to choose the methods best suited to the data he has collected,
and will need to be able to justify his choice of methods.

Stage 9 – Drawing conclusions and interpretations


Stage 8 involved very detailed analysis and interpretation, working with the detail of
the data and drawing out important ideas about every part of the topic that has been
studied. Stage 9 is the ‘big picture’ stage of the research, where the detailed
interpretations are drawn together to try to ‘answer’ the overall research question. It will
certainly involve a critical reflection on the conclusions student has drawn and the
methods he has used, and will probably make recommendations for future research in
the field. In social science fields it may include recommendations for policy-makers and
practitioners about future practice and policy.

Stage 10 – Preparing the final thesis


Writing of the thesis is covered in more detail in writing a thesis. The final stage of the
project, though, is assembling the final version of the thesis. Student will produce drafts
of individual chapters throughout the project, and these can be assembled into the first
draft of the overall thesis or dissertation. At this stage, though, the work needs to be
prepared for submission – making sure the whole work is coherent; writing, re-writing
and editing; assembling diagrams, tables or charts; completing and checking the
bibliography and appendices; preparing the contents and the abstract; printing and
binding the work. This all takes a significant amount of time, which needs to be built
into the planning of the project.
Student will see from reading through the stages of the project that there is much to plan
and prepare for. While it is not possible to plan precisely how long each stage will take,
and unforeseen things may arise, it is very helpful to plan as carefully as student can.

5
There are two simple techniques student can use to plan his time and his project – a time
line and a Gantt chart.

Points to remember
This looks a straightforward path to understand and follow, but there are a number of
important points to remember with this model. First, real project will not follow this
path in a neat sequence:
• Some stages will overlap – for example, student will certainly start to develop
interpretations and conclusions as soon as he starts collecting data, and he may of course
want to test some of his conclusions by collecting further data.

• Student may need to return to earlier stages – for example, piloting may indicate his
need to make changes to the methodology.

• Some stages will continue throughout the project – for example, student will need to
keep reviewing the literature throughout the project to be sure that he has not missed
anything important or that there have not been new publications on the topic. Even while
student is preparing the final thesis he will need to do a last-minute literature check so
that he dose not miss the latest publications.

Secondly, student will need to be writing the thesis/dissertation from as early in the
project as possible. Stage 10 is preparing the final version, not starting to write. It is
very important to recognise that student must start writing as soon as he can, otherwise
it may become a major psychological barrier for him

ADVANCE ZOOLOGY VII (GENETICS AND WILDLIFE)
CREDIT HOURS: 3+1
Objectives

The continuity of the life from one generation to other generation is based on the mechanisms involving
nucleus, chromosomes and genes etc. The process of continuity not only transfers the traits of the
parents but also imparts variations that render the generations sustainable in changing environment.
These concepts will be imparted to the students in this course.

Course Contents (Wild Life)

Wildlife of Pakistan, identification, distribution, status, conservation and management (population


estimate technology) of fishes, reptiles, birds and mammals of major importance in Pakistan.Wildlife
rules and regulations in Pakistan. National and International agencies involved in conservation and
management of wildlife. Sanctuaries, Game Reserves and National Parks in Pakistan.Ramsar
convention, wetlands, endangered species of Pakistan.
(Note: The teacher is suggested to provide blank maps of Pakistan in the theory class to the students to indicate
the distribution of the animals. Similar blanks maps should be attached with the question paper, if distribution
of animals is asked from the student in the theory paper).

Course Contents (Genetics)

Classical genetics –genetics of blood groups, chromosomal basis of inheritance, interaction of genes,
linkage, recombination and chromosome mapping in eukaryotes, quantitative inheritance. gene
concept (classical and modern), genetics of viruses, bacteria, transposons.

Molecular genetics – analysis and techniques of molecular genetics (elements of genetic engineering),
genetic basis of cancer, genetic control of animal development, the genetic control of the vertebrate
immune system, complex inheritance patterns.

Population genetics – Hardy-Wienberg equilibrium, systematic and dispersive pressures, inbreeding


and heterosis.

ADVANCE ZOOLOGY VIII (ZOOGEOGRAPHY AND PALEONTOLOGY)

CREDIT HOURS: 3+1

Objectives:

The course imparts knowledge and concepts of evolution mainly based on the past fossil records. The
fossil records also provide the information regarding the distribution of animals in the past eras. This
course provides information on the distribution of animals and their associations in the past; thus, to
rationalize their relationship in the present time.

Course Contents

Zoogeography: Branches of zoogeography (descriptive, chorology, faunistics, systematic,


biocoenotic, causal, ecological, historical, experimental and applied zoogeography). Animal
distribution (cosmopolitan distribution, discontinuous distribution, isolation distribution, bipolar
distribution and endemic distribution) Barriers and dispersal. Zoogeographical regions (division,
geographic ranges, physical features, climates, faunas and affinities of Holarctic (Palaearctic, Nearctic
regions), Oriental, Ethiopian, Australian, and New tropical Regions. Palaeogeography (Theories of
Continental drift and Plate tectonics).

Principles of Paleontology: Earth, Shells of earth; (atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and


lithosphere). Rock, types of rocks (lgneous rocks, sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks) Fossil,
types and uses of fossils, nature of fossils. Processes of fossilization. Geological time scale. Pre-
Cambrian life. Post Cambrian life (Palaeozoic life, Mesozoic life, Cenozoic life). Geochronometry
(Uranium/Lead dating, radiocarbon dating, methods), evolutionary history of man, elephant, horse
and camel, Paleoecology, Paleomagnetism.
