Scientific paper

Simple physical models of a measuring rod and of a clock are used to
demonstrate the contraction of objects and clock retardation in special
relativity. It is argued that the models could help in promoting student
understanding of special relativity and in distinguishing between dynamical and
purely perspectival effects.
