We have a location for the fall meeting on September 20, 2014. It will be at the Pecos Campus of Chandler-Gilbert Community College. The address is: 2626 East Pecos Road, Chandler, Arizona 85225-2499. Room Ironwood Hall 107/108. A campus map will be provided later.

Also, another presenter:
Michael Canham will do a presentation on “Pinhole Cameras in the Classroom” – Since I, Michael Canham, am the one writing this I can tell you that I am trying to plan for something BIG.

Here are the first two presenters:

1.  Steve Barr – “The Origin of Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity- Did It Come From Lorentz, Poincaré, and Minkowski? And What About FitzGerald?”. You may recall that Steve did the Ohm’s Law workshop last Fall.

2.  Arne Yanof – hands – on experiments for PHY112 which use inexpensive and ordinary materials.

We still need more presenters so any thoughts or suggestions you have will be much appreciated.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.
