As per the objectives of curriculum, students studying Physics at the Higher Secondary level have to study the practical part (Experimental Physics) along with the theory part. The details on the experiments to be completed for the first year and the second year are clearly mentioned in the syllabus.
The first year students are directed to undergo internal exam. It is conducted for 20 marks/1½ hour duration. The score obtained here can be considered as CCE of the second year.
As part of board exam, practical exam is conducted for the second year students. Maximum of 40 marks is awarded for the 3 hours duration test. There would be usually two questions for practical exam. Of these two questions, one will be from the first year experiment and the other one from the second year experiment.
Higher Secondary Physics Practical Log Book
To record the experiments that the students do at the Physics lab, Physics Practical Log Book should be used. The aim, principle, procedure, tabular column of each experiment must be entered in to log book. The second year students appearing for Practical board exam, should submit the log book certified by the teacher. The students should keep a separate log book for first year and second year.
Higher Secondary Physics Lab Manual
Higher Secondary Physics Lab Manual is now made available for the Higher Secondary students. The Higher Secondary Physics lab Manual in PDF form, prepared by Sri. Harikrishnan K, CVM HSS Vandazhy, Palakkad and Sri.Sreejith P.S. GHSS, Ezhikkara, Ernakulam can be downloaded from the link below.
The students can get the aim, principle, theory, tabular column and result of each experiment from the lab manual given here.
