New Homepage - Better! Faster! More Efficient!

After Months of research, development and testing, PhysicsLessons.com has launched its new homepage design.  Our goal with this project was to create a navigation system that would allow teachers and students to spend less time searching and more time teaching and learning! 

The main improvement with this version is the utilization of an advanced 'dropdown' navigation menu which will allow teachers and students to more quickly access science content on the site.

New!!! Journal of Physics Teacher Education Online

New!  

Journal of Physics Teacher Education Online

 

Physics teachers and those that teach physics teachers are often isolated from their peers. As a result, those who engage in innovative acts of teaching do not have many opportunities to share their work, and to build upon the work of others.

Although the primary audience of the Journal of Physics Teacher Education Online are teacher educators -- teacher candidates  and classroom teachers may find this new publication interesting.

To subscribe to Journal of Physics Teacher Education Online, send an e-mail to wenning@phy.ilstu.edu indicating your desire to subscribe. Subscribers will receive quarterly updates announcing the availability of the latest edition.

Alternative to subscription will be periodic visits to the Journal's Website at www.phy.ilstu.edu/jpteo where the current publication, along with back issues, may be downloaded.
