Description of projects is limited to those having direct relevance to pre-college education and generally to those resulting from grants made through the Course Content Improvement Program of the Division of Pre-College Education in Science. The projects include videly diverse activities: curriculum conferences, the development of nev or improved instructional apparatus, the production of complete courses that may include nev laboratory experiences and guides, educational films, teachers guides, in-service materials, and textbooks. The projects are presented vithin these four categories: Elementary School Projects (K-6) ; Intermediate School Projects (7-9); Secondary School Projects (10-12); and General Projects (K-12). Included vith each project V description is a list of available materials and the address(es) for y obtaining same.

    Physics and Feynman's Diagrams » American Scientist 6/3/10 12:09 PM FEATURE ARTICLE Physics and Feynman's Diagrams In the hands of a postwar generation, a tool intended to lead quantum electrodynamics out of a decades-long morass helped transform physics David Kaiser George Gamow, the wisecracking theoretical physicist who helped invent the Big Bang model of the universe, was fond of explaining what he liked best about his line of work: He could lie down on a couch and close his eyes, and no one would be able to tell whether he was working or not. A fine gag, but a bad model for thinking about the day-to-day work that theoretical physicists do. For too long, physicists, historians and philosophers took Gamow's joke quite seriously. Research in theory, we were told, concerns abstract thought wholly separated from anything like labor, activity or skill. Theories, worldviews or paradigms seemed the appropriate units of analysis, and the challenge lay in charting the birth and conceptual development of particular ideas. In the accounts that resulted from such studies, the skilled manipulation of tools played little role. Ideas, embodied in texts, traveled easily from theorist to theorist, shorn of the material constraints that encumbered experimental physicists (tied as they were to their electron microscopes, accelerators or bubble chambers). The age-old trope of minds versus hands has been at play in our account of progress in physics, which pictures a purely cognitive realm of ideas separated from a manual realm of action. This depiction of what theorists do, I am convinced, obscures a great deal more than it clarifies.

  • Physics Curriculum Reform: How Can We Do It?
    PHYSICS CURRICULUM REFORM: HOW CAN WE DO IT? Robert G.Fuller, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nebraska -Lincoln, USA The physics community in the United States of American is facing a crisis. This crisis has been described in presentations and papers at professional meetings in various ways. Let me introduce you to the crisis faced by the physics community by discussing three different published papers that present views of this crisis. First is the paper by David Goodstein, Provost of the California Institute of Technology and a physicist who co-authored The Mechanical Universe television series and textbook. According to Provost Goodstein "The Big Crunch" occurred in the 1970s which was the end of 100 years of exponential growth of science in the USA. No longer was increase financial support and national interest in science guaranteed. Our educational institutions are poorly adapted to deal with a different future. In the USA science education has produced the Paradox of Scientific Elites and Scientific Illiterates. We have a small cadre of exceptional scientists and a broad population of scientific illiterate people. The model for science education in the USA has been described as a leaky pipeline. This is the wrong. Mining and Sorting is a better metaphor for science education in the USA. The purpose of the education enterprise has been to sort out the student unworthy of a professional degree in science. It reaches its culmination in graduate school. Research professors obtain external funding, independent of the needs of the institution, to run their research programs. In the steady state each professor needs to turn out ONE Professor for the next generation.

The conference locked at the relationship between development styles for development enterprises as a whole and the developmental pattern of individual projects. Attention was concentrated on how curriculum developments are defined and by whom, in what terms they are formulated, and how activities are generated in response to these needs and purposes..Much of the discussion centered around (1) the contrast between centralized and decentralized systems; (2) the impact of curriculum development on the rcle of the teacher;
