I recently received a request from some colleagues at the Educational
Development Center to find teachers who would be willing to pilot a
new 9th grade physics curriculum.
The curriculum program, Foundation Science, is sponsored by the
National Science Foundation and aligns with the National standards
including the AAAS, MCREL, and National Research Council’s guidelines
for all the high school sciences Our advisors, reviewers, and former
field test teachers nation-wide include National Board Certified
teachers, college professors and leaders in the field of teaching and
professional development. There is also the possibility of a
professional development opportunity associated with the field test.
Below is the flyer for the physics course. If you have interest
colleagues, there are also courses in chemistry and in biology. For
more information, contact C. Judd Hill at EDC:
