NEws and general information

 

  Summer holidays

The canteen will be closed for the summer as of Thursday, June 14 and will open again on Monday, 20 August 2012. Tran wishes you all a great summer.

The last issue of IFT-posten will be published next Friday, June 15, so those of you who want to publish information on your activities should send them in latest by Friday morning.

  The Norwegian Conference on Physics Teaching

We would like to remind you of the Norwegian Conference on Physics Teaching at Gol from August 7-9. This traditional and well-known conference is a "must" for all physicists and for all members of the Norwegian Physics Association (NFS) who are linked to primary school physics teaching and teacher training. The conference is organized by the Norwegian Physics Teachers’ Association, NFS’s section for teaching. Due to an error, this e-mail relatively late to the NFS members. Registration deadline is therefore extended to June 15. For more details on programme, prices, practical details and registration click here.
