The September 1994 conference's agenda shifted its attention from teaching pedagogy per se and toward the elements of "good" physics and the necessary teaching methods that make physics understandable. The 41 proceedings papers take up the charge and reintroduce the contents of physics, the issues of language conception in teaching physics, the use of the laboratory and the computer, and teaching dilemmas in particular topics like thermodynamics and quantum physics.
