Look at the Publications and Journal links on the AAPT website. There
are several books available that would be of help to you. Especially:
Arnold Arons, Teaching Introductory Physics. Also, look under Teaching
Resources: Guidelines for HS Physics, Physical Sciences resource Center,
comPADRE.

Subject: [Phys-l] Physics Refresher
I'm looking for some advice on the best approach to a physics
refresher. I am 25 years out of school with a BS in Physics and MS
in Health Physics. I have spent the intervening years in an
environment where there were no demands on my education or training.
So rusty doesn't begin to describe my current situation. I am
planning on returning to my degree and entering the high school
physics classroom in the next 2 years. I picked up a current
textbook (Haliday/Resnick/Walker). So in addition to working through
the book does anyone have a recommendation on how to best sharpen my
skills and bring my knowledge up to date? I have completed the
state required coursework to enter the secondary classroom so my main
focus now is to revamp my physics knowledge.
