Physics Teaching for the 21st Century is a resource for teachers who are interested in teaching physics concepts in real world contexts.

The great problems of the 20^th century were solved by a few incredibly smart people. The great problems of the 21^st century will have to be solved by billions of moderately smart people. This is where teachers come in...

In this website you will find:

• articles that clearly explain the physics concepts in a real world context
• take-home experiments that can be done by students or by teachers as demonstrations in class
• lecture notes in the form of power point presentations
• multiple choice questions to use as a quick test of understanding during lectures, and as a way to stimulate critical thinking.
• problem sets and exam questions that would interest students (including solutions)
  
• data sheets with realistic numbers and information
• videos further explaining physics concepts in real world contexts
