Jerrold R. Zacharias, professor of Physics at M.I.T., will give a lecture-demonstration at 8 p.m. Monday in Burr B on methods of teaching physics to large groups.

The lecture is being sponsored by the Committee on Teaching as a Career and is open free to the public.

Zacharias will devote particular attention to the use of films and other audio-visual aids in group instruction. The use of such devices in the teaching of a mathematical science is "quite new and revolutionary," according to Edwin H. Sauer, lecturer on Education.

Films and other audio-visual aids are an improvement in teaching technique and a potential answer to the current shortage of teachers, Sauer commented.

For the past few years films have been used widely in the teaching of such natural sciences as geology and astronomy.
