Here are the questions we would like you to answer as part of our development of a first rate physics teacher induction plan. Detailed information about your experiences in science education and the preparation of science teachers is extremely valuable to us and we want to thank you in advance for your time and interest.

1. List the top three items, in order of importance, that we should focus on in supporting and preparing future physics educators?
2. Please tell us the one most positive influence on your teaching and/or your outlook on teaching. Why was this experience so influential?
3. Please tell us the one most positive influence on your teaching and/or your outlook on teaching. Why was this experience so influential?
4. How can FIU help ease the transition from university to the classroom?
5. What else can we do?
6. In what way do you see yourself most suited for improving the retention and success of new physics teachers?

We will email you in a day or so with a link to a questionnaire. Please be specific and detailed. We know that there is some fabulous physics going on out there and we want to get at the root of it.
