Scientific paper

The National Science Standards ask for "relevance" and use a very limited set of topics. The "less is more" approach leaves out many topics that practicing physicists and teachers believe are essential for equipping students to see the roles of science in the modern world. The Standards' request for "relevance" may also not match the inspirational topics of today's physics and astronomy. If these problems are not considered as the Standards become incorporated in curricula, a substantial fall in student interest in physics and astronomy could result.
