Pat
In our high school we do not have IA any more. Last couples years it was called
communications, this year the name changed to Tech Prep, what the difference is
I have no idea.  Our LVEC (I love all these new initials) is pushing towards PT
(Physical Training ???) and I have recently reeived the entire course content.

Some of the videos that go along with PT are excellent and I have used them in
 my physics classes.  The data with PT says that the student will have just as
 good  a physics
background from this as from a "traditional" physcis class.

I am wondering if the universities will accept this as a science course or not.

Our school seems to have alot of money to spend on equipment for PT where I have
very little for physics so I may just jump on the band wagon to see where it
 will lead
in the next few years.  There are many good ideas in the applied physics
concepts but you probably already use many of them in your class.
