The Physical Science Study Committee was inaugurated at MIT in 1956 to review introductory physics education and to design, implement and monitor improvements. It produced major new physics textbooks, instructional movies and classroom laboratory materials, which were used by high schools around the world during the 1960s and 1970s.[1]
