Re: Teaching Relativity to high school students



I generally spend some time teaching relativity. In an honors class (now
some years ago) I spent as much as six weeks going through several books,
of which the best was; Space and Time in Special Relativity by N.
David Mermin.

Has someone already worked on teaching relativity theory to high school
