We are developing developing 3D and animated graphics in
Maple and/or PostScript that illustrate concepts such as
rotating vectors and colliding spheres. We discuss a particular
simulation and provide students with the Maple source code, and ask
the students to modify the simulation by modifying the Maple program.
During the year we have developed object-oriented physics textbooks
in mechanics and electromagnetism. The first book, ``Mechanics'',
is now at the last stage of writing and will be published this
year by Springer-Verlag, Japan Publishing LTD.
