World Year of Physics 2005
"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death."
A. Einstein

High School Physics Teachers' Day

The 2005 Particle Accelerator Conference (PAC05) and the Division of Physics of Beams (DPB) of the American Physical Society (APS) sponsored a High School Physics Teachers’ Day on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, to be held as part of PAC05 in Knoxville, Tennessee. This Teachers’ Day, which was free, provided a full day of professional development geared to physics teachers:

Hands-on workshops presenting innovative, classroom-ready activities for physics students

Research talks on cutting-edge physics

A welcome breakfast, for networking with fellow teachers

A luncheon, for networking

World Year of Physics events on Wednesday afternoon and evening

About 40 teachers participated in this workshop and received the paperwork needed to receive continuing education credits from the American Association of Physics Teachers.
