In the summer of 1985 we ran a workshop for high school physics teachers, sponsored by the National Science Foundation under its program of Honors Workshops for Pre‐College Teachers of Science and Mathematics. The summer experience consisted of a five‐week workshop and a four‐week industrial experience. The teachers had a wide variety of backgrounds and needs, which were accommodated in the workshop. This paper describes how the workshop was run, what activities were successful, and where we encountered problems.
