Do you have trouble making modern physics a "hands-on"
topic for your students? If so, this is the workshop for you! Join us for a one-day workshop where you take particle physics and other related topics out of
the book and put it directly into your students’ hands! You will walk out of
this program ready with plans that can be used with your class the next day.
