We believe that physics teaching is a wonderful thing, but are aware not everyone agrees. In the UK more and more non-specialists are getting the opportunity (welcome or otherwise) to shine a light on peoples misconceptions about the World around them.We started this podcast to provide useful information about how some of the best physics teachers we know teach the subject. Nearly always the answer will be 'do some practical work', which we know is essential to grounding understanding as well as being fun to do and making lessons easier to manage.MORE Hosts Thomas W-P, Robin Griffiths
