COURSE EVALUATIONS – SUMMARY Enhancement Course - Physics Day 5 (Light & Sound) Wednesday 20th July 2011 154 DELEGATES 100% of delegates said they thought the course was either ‘good’ or 'very good' with 79% saying it was ‘very good’.
SOME COMMENTS FROM THE DELEGATES: ‘This area is very new to me and I found it very enlightening’ Indeed an eye opening session for me. I know very little about space but this session has been very useful to me.’. ‘ Really interesting’. ‘ Really enjoy space and the universe, very interesting lesson.’. ‘ Some heavy concepts made light’. ‘My understanding has strengthened ’.
Thanks to Phillip and Neil at The Physics Factory. Having completed the SKE course recently I really feel like I have got my ‘mojo’ back. I was feeling a little jaded with teaching but The Physics Factory has really fired me up again. It confirmed that I already do some good stuff with my pupils which has boosted my confidence but far more than that, I’ve taken lots of new, innovative and really great ideas away with me and I learnt more in five days than I have in years of teaching!
From concrete understanding to abstract explanations, I have accessed a whole wealth of information to help my pupils. How do you help pupils understand why a voltmeter is placed in parallel? Simple, use boiled sweets. Use pie cases for static electricity and a beach ball for ionisation.
I am ashamed to say that even after many, many years of teaching Science, the Physics Factory was still of enormous benefit to me. I wholly recommend anybody who is considering teaching or experienced teachers who lack confidence in delivering outside of their specialism to visit The Physics Factory.
Fantastic course!Philip and Neil are both excellent teachers, i've learnt so much from my time here and many new, fun experiments that i will be putting into practice. Cant wait to bring the students back.

Thank a lot Physics Factory.
Lots of fun and very useful, will definately be bringing my students back once I've qualified.
