Synergistic Activities
- Based on my interaction with the HNTB Company engineering
firm, which is designing a new bridge across the Mississippi River at
St. Louis, I have published a pedagogical article on the physics of suspension
bridges, B. J. Feldman,"What to say about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge
to your introductory physics class", The Physics Teacher
41, 92-96 (2003).
- In response to an article on pedagogical approaches to physics education,
I have published a response briefly stating my pedagogical approach,
B. J. Feldman," Comment on 'How do we know if we are doing a good
job in physics teaching' ", American Journal of Physics 70,
471 (2002).
- Based on my experience as a consultant in an automobile accident legal
proceedings, I have published a pedagogical article describing the physics
involved in this case, that could be used in any introductory physics
class. B.J. Feldman, "Elementary physics in a real automobile accident",
The Physics Teacher 25, 335-338 (1997).
- From 1988 to 2001, I have been Chairman of the small Committees Program,
which is part of the American Physical Society's Committee on the International
Freedom of Scientists. The small Committee Program adopts physicists
from around the world whose human rights are being violated by their
governments and pairs them up with physicists who wish to help them.
I have organized, coordinated, informed and disbanded over two hundred
small Committees.
