  1. AAPT/PTRA SUMMER INTERNSHIP Patrick Mangan

  2. MY PROJECTS v Contact network of US STEM-focused high schools v Organization of the NGSS v PTRA resource document updates v Work with new AAPT staff member

  3. CONTACT NETWORK v Network of STEM-focused high schools across the US • US News & World Report list of top STEM Schools • National Consortium for Specialized Secondary Schools of Mathematics, Science and Technology (NCSSSMST) v Organized by state and region v Physics contacts at each school (teachers, etc.) • Contact info taken from school websites

  4. NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS v Task: Arrange the NGSS in a way that is useful to physics teachers v Flow chart of the physics-related performance expectations • To see how well they lead into one another • To see how cohesive the standards are altogether

  6. PTRA DOCUMENTS v PTRA-Physics Teaching Resource Agents v Identified parts of old PTRA documents that needed updating • NGSS • Pedagogy v Additions to some documents • Sections on electronics

  7. EXTRA WORK v Worked with new AAPT staff member (Rebecca Vieyra) v Compiled list of physics teaching resources for elementary school classrooms v Found a lack of resources for younger grades

  8. FINAL THOUGHTS v The contact network will be a good resource for AAPT to communicate with STEM-focused high schools v The flow chart will be a good resource for teachers in districts/ states adopting the NGSS v Physics is under-represented in elementary science education

  9. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS v AAPT Staff v SPS Staff v Fellow 2015 SPS Interns
