Re: [science-education] Responsible science teachers

Hi

This seems very interesting

Is there a web-sit where the information is available in this form? Just
one point: I note that in the basic science section (Section reproduced
below) that the second Law of Thermodynamics is 'condensed' to the
statement that 'Everything spreads'. Would it not be more meaningful and
perhaps a better place to start exploring the idea to change this to
'Energy tends to spread' (Or even 'Energy Spreads') rather than
EVERYTHING.
