Name: Kevin McClean Country: Ireland Hometown: Enniscorthy, County Wexford. 120 kilometres from Dublin in the South-East of Ireland. Where and what do you teach (type of school, age of your students, subjects): I am currently on secondment to the Physics Support Service, which provides in-service support to teachers of physics in second level schools (high schools) around Ireland. This programme involves school visits, organisation of cluster meetings, preparing resources and providing email and telephone support. This national programme is organised by Limerick Education Centre as part of the Physical Sciences Initiative. Particle Physics, STS (science, technology and society) and the introduction of data logging are some major aspects of the new physics syllabus, which will be examined for the first time in 2002. In 1993, I completed a Master's Degree in Applied Physics at University College Dublin. Following this I joined the Institute of Physics and became a Chartered Physicist. I have been teaching physics in a boys second level school, St Mary's CBS in Enniscorthy, County Wexford up to last year. This school has approximately 500 students ranging in age from 12 to 18 years. Science is taught as a combined subject of physics, chemistry and biology for the first three years in secondary school. The option of a Transition Year is available to students who may wish to opt for a year, which is less academic in nature with the emphasis more on group work, project work and work experience. Students may then opt for physics as part of their Leaving Certificate, which is the terminal examination in Irish second level schools. Personal or school web page: E-mail: kmcclean@eircom.net
