I have a sabbatical scheduled for 2nd semester. My employer requires that I earn some graduate credits from an accredited school during the sabbatical. What I'd really like to do is spend the time writing some curriculum materials. I've taught high school physics for 25 years and compute science for 10. I have accumulated tons of materials and ideas that I'd like to pull together. My dream is to restructure my physics course to utilize the computers, CD-ROMs, video disks, MBL, and other materials to provide more individualize instruction. I've already done this with the computer science classes. Much of the instruction there is done with HyperCard stacks that I've written. The kids work at their own pace on various assignments, often branching off into specialized areas of interest in greater depth. I spend my time running around doing 1-on-1 help and mini-presentations to small groups. I'd like my physics classes to work like this. I have most of the resources. My enemy is time. My sabbatical is a great solution. What would clinch this would be if I could find a school somewhere that would make it possible for me to earn some graduate credits for developing these ideas. Anyone have any suggestions??? Hank Deemer
