It is Different for Physics Teachers!!

A hearing loss forced me from the classroom 12 years ago I discovered I’d been teaching wrongly, but very successfully for 20 years. To teach is to learn, but teaching teachers takes this to another level. The more I have learned the more I realise I have to learn. I believe that scientific and digital literacy are as important as literacy, numeracy and oracy. Our young people are heading into an uncertain and polarised future and they need the knowledge and skills to navigate it. Our young people have one shot at education. They deserve the best. It is up to us to try and give it to them. I am available for CPD or to teach classes.
Redefine what can be done, starting with great pedagogy and then see how digital tools can support learning. Support and Demo lessons are available. Primary and Secondary
Either teacher/department CPD or delivering sessions to classes. The physics of football or other sports is another option. Primary and Secondary
Getting girls into physics and underrepresented groups. The ladder of role models workshops can be transformational.
Use rubbish to solve real problems and learn to think like a real scientist. Connect globally to learn collaboratively. Primary and Secondary
Developing Brilliant Scientists capable of solving real problems. Helping create food, water and health security.
Researching what really works in Digital Education
Self -Study Modules are available on my Teachable Site
Improving teacher subject knowledge is crucial. Self Learning
Too many students think that physics is “Not for people like me. What can be done?

‘Having collaborated with Neil Atkin several times already, I can wholeheartedly state that Neil is an outstanding educator and science facilitator. His ability to both entertain and engage his audiences with puzzling inquiry-based tasks while at the same time creating an exceptional educational environment is unparalleled. Neil’s approach to education is highly innovative, evidence-based, and inclusive on every level. Indeed, Neil ensures that all participants of his workshops leave the room happy, inspired and with a smile on their faces.’ Jeff Weiner Head of Education at CERN
Having collaborated with Neil Atkin and seen his online demonstration lessons I can testify to his fantastic, innovative approach to embedding EdTech tools into the classroom. Neil
delivers what others only do theoretically. It is not about the tools, it is about the learning,

Neil Atkin is our Primary Science trainer and for each cohort, we ask him to talk to our Trainee Teachers about Rubbish Science. It is clear that Neil’s vision for Rubbish Science is to have a huge and sustained impact on children around the world and he has the passion to increase the scope of Rubbish Science, which is already having an impact both globally with Operation Orphan, and in the hearts and minds of teachers and children who have benefitted from his training.

Neil Atkin’s passion for science teaching is a joy to behold. His innovative approaches and extensive pedagogical knowledge will make you keen to get back to your classroom to try things out. H Reynolds OBE Probably the best physics teacher on the planet !
