CSU is one of five universities to receive funding in 2010 through a competitive two stage review process. – see http://www.phystec.org/presentations/pr-0410.php The Chicago State University PhysTEC Program Thinking about teaching physics? Check out the video below, produced by PhysTEC, and then talk to us about the secondary education option in Physics at CSU.
main page, upcoming events	The Chicago State University PhysTEC Program seeks to (1) increase the number of students in our secondary education program in physics, (2) increase the number of students pursuing certification in science with a designation in physics, (3) create a stronger connection between our inservice programs and our preservice programs, (4) provide an early teaching/reflection opportunity that links inservice and preservice teachers, and (5) provide appropriate research and teaching opportunities for preservice teachers to develop strong Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK). The CSU PhysTEC goals directly impact the university’s mission to effect change in the local community. By becoming a high school science teacher, you will have the opportunity to go back to your community and effect change. Want to have an impact? Become a physics teacher.
