One of our education majors came to me with a good question, but one I
couldn't answer, and I'm hoping for some help/direction.
With the new focus to return to the moon, the student wanted to know
how
physics education was 'retooled' during the late 50s and early 60s
vis-a-vis the last push to get to the moon and our supposed 'knowledge
gap' with the Soviets.
I thought there was some physics education reform at that time, but I
didn't know if it was driven by those reasons. I also couldn't
remember
what the reform was. Can anyone point me to a reference I can give the
young man?
Thank you,
Peter Schoch
