Should high school physics be the place to start learning about modern technology? We need to teach some basics first, but are we coming across as antiquated to our kids? Perhaps some quantum physics, and nano technology in the curriculum would get kids interested in engineering fields. What do you think?
This is an interesting video I want to share. It should really be addressed to all parents and teachers. I have personally noticed a total disinterest in Physics in the high school curriculum. Perhaps add some more physics history to help tie the dots for kids to technology they are using today.
