      • For the past three years, workshops specifically directed at new physics teachers have been conducted in the Los Angeles area. These workshops are held on a Saturday three times a year and involve four experienced teachers working with teachers who have fewer than five years of experience teaching physics. Each of the three workshops spend a full day concentrating on topics that the new teachers will most likely to encounter in the next few months. There are demonstrations, teaching ideas, discussions of problems and each afternoon several labs are conducted to give the participants hands on experience with the equipment. This session will give a brief view of how the workshops are run with demonstrations and discussions. Both new and experienced teachers from the San Diego area are strongly encouraged to attend and learn how the NPTW concept can be extended to the San Diego area.

      • Physics of Scuba is a hands-on special event exploring the effects that divers and their equipment are subject to underwater. The classroom portion combines multiple topics such as laws of physics relevant to diving, physical effects of scuba on divers and physical phenomena of interest to divers in an interactive and engaging format. This event is co-presented by physics & education faculty together with licensed dive instructors. After a morning of classroom activities and instruction, after lunch, your day will culminate with the opportunity for you to get in the water using scuba gear in an afternoon (heated) pool session with dive instructors who will guide your pool experience. If you would like to experience scuba to either enhance your physics instruction or just for fun, this is the event for you. Both the classroom and pool sessions will be held at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel. Bring a swimming suit for pool session.
