ABSTRACT—This presentation brings together the personal experience (acquired over a span of almost half a century, in various countries and institutions) of teaching one-semester courses in Electromagnetic Field Theory and in Advancedcourses in Electromagnetic Field Theory and in Advanced Electrodynamics, to students, both under and post graduate, whose priority is not theoretical subjects, like engineers and applied physicists The ultimate challenge is to engage them by devisingphysicists. The ultimate challenge is to engage them by devising curricular packages that are succinct and self contained but still of high level. We wish to equip our students with precise concepts, while keeping the mathematics at a level that they are skilled to handle. Moreover, we wish to instill in them the intuitive thinking needed to tackle problems related to their future specializations.p p

*Why is the theory so important for application- oriented Students?
*How can we convince them they need it?
*What teaching methods should we use to achieve skills, without getting bogged down by the
detailed proofs of mathematical theorems?detailed proofs of mathematical theorems? Laplace equation for potential field 2 0 r , r

THE EXTREMAL VALUE THEOREM A closed surface S encloses a volume V. Given a potential field 2 0 r , with the minimal and maximal equipotential surfaces indicated. If V is q pchargeless, then the extremal potential values within V occur on S too.

The proof is by reductio ad absurdum). Suppose there exists within V a closed equipotential surface T , which does not cut or touch S, whose potential is higher than the maximum occurring on S

There is a potential gradient, and in close proximity to T there will exist another closed equipotential surface U, whose potential is incrementally lower than that on T. Hence there exists a field D, everywhere pointing outwards from T to U, in the direction of the outward normal. Integrate

SD on the closed surface T. All D field vectors point
outwards therefore the integrand has always the same sign--the integral is nonvanishing Therefore there must exist a charge Q within T But thisis nonvanishing. Therefore there must exist a charge Q within T. But this violates the initial assumption that there are no charges within V, hence equipotential surfaces within V not cutting or touching S, cannot exist, and the theorem is proven The same technique is used to show that thereand the theorem is proven. The same technique is used to show that there cannot exist surfaces within S that do not touch S, whose potential is lower than min .

Should we start by presenting electromagnetic theory in a historical-phenomenological manner with all the y p gseparate “laws”, like many textbooks do, and spend time on consolidating previously studied mathematical tools: vector
d t l i th f diff ti l ti ? Oand tensor analysis, theory of differential equations? Or should we jump into the pool at the deep end, starting with the Maxwell equations and clarifying specific points asthe Maxwell equations and clarifying specific points as they are encountered?

STARTING WITH ME CLARIFIES THE PREMISESSTARTING WITH ME CLARIFIES THE PREMISESWe start with the postulated Maxwell Equations (ME), ‘law’? Anyhow, what is the meaning of ( ), w ? y ow, w s e e g o“low of nature”?

Coulomb's force (CF) ‘law’ qF E , associates mechanicalCoulomb s force (CF) law qF E , associates mechanicalF and E , is a definition! We can only measure directly F . Lorentz force (LF) (‘formula’? ‘law’?) ( )q F E v B sets CF as a limiting case for 0v . Special Relativity (SR) shows CF and LF the two are identical. LF cannot be derived from MELF cannot be derived from ME.ME+LF+SR is a complete model of electromagnetism. ME are indeterminate (#variables > #equations), therefore( q )we need additional constitutive (material) relations (CR).
