David,
It wouldn’t be WNEC, would it? I may have taken PHYS 134 with you.
In college, I agree that the classes should be focused and rigorous, to prepare for what’s next. In HS, the physics class may be the last time most of the students are really exposed to that type of thinking. If it’s not interesting, they’ll forget everything the day after the exam.
Frankly, I think its upsetting that academics has been broken up into subjects to be studied in 45 minute periods, as if Math, History, Science, and English really are different topics.
I blame Horace Mann.
