About the Project
Sepal is conducting a qualitative research study to define benchmarks of professional excellence in physics education. We are looking for experienced professionals to contribute their expertise through structured documentation of their work, creation of domain specific screening criteria, and development of high quality case studies.
Selected contributors will help shape an industry informed framework for evaluating physics education expertise, with a focus on real world practices, decision making, and professional judgment.
Ideal Participants May Hold Titles Such As
- Physics Professor
- Theoretical Physics Instructor
- Applied Physics Lecturer
- Astrophysics Faculty
- Quantum Mechanics Teacher
- Physics Lab Coordinator
