Open Letter to the President: Physics Education. If you took a class of high school physics, you`d still know nothing. That needs to change. Get your sh*t together, US.

I am kind of surprised, having done Physics almost 20years ago in Australia, I just took it for granted studying relativity and quantum theory was a given.

I taught high school Physics for a year and I tried to squeeze as much modern physics in as possible. It is difficult because you have to meet the standards set forth by the state and most schools only offer physics as an elective. Most of the kids enjoyed the challenge of modern physics and they found it much more interesting than classic.

You could fit more in if you had more time and taught it better. There's so much pointless repetition in school.
