From university professors and graduate students to high school teachers (my own probable career path) one theme stood out: How do we teach better? I went down to our city’s Inner Harbor Sunday evening and attended the SPS/AAPT poster reception and Physics Jeopardy competition. Who says physicists cannot have a good time? The posters by many undergraduate and graduate students were a view into twenty-first century education and research.
One of the most important professional lessons I have learned was not about science, management, or leadership. It was about how success in my job was tied to money.
