A Letter to the Editor

SEP 01, 1952
Physics Teaching in Secondary Schools

DOI: 10.1063/1.3067733

Carl G. F. Franzen

I have read the article on “The Role of the Secondary School in the Teaching of Science” by Dr. George R. Harrison (Physics Today, June 1952) and find that it presents a point of view which I can endorse completely. It is indeed encouraging to find men of science who have taken the time to become so well aware of the problems of public school education as has Dr. Harrison, and even more encouraging when they will express themselves so brilliantly on problems of education in a publication such as Physics Today, which reaches not only physicists but scientists and engineers in general.
