for more teachers to teach our classes. Specifically, we'd love to have students in Course 8 teach cool physics classes! Would you mind forwarding this to students in your department?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";background:white">Teach for Spring HSSP 2012! Spring HSSP is a long-term program in the spring during which middle and high school students can come take up to
three classes on a variety of subjects. As a teacher, you get to design and teach an <b>8-class course</b> on absolutely anything (academic or not). Previous classes have been anything from “Vision and Computational Photography” to “How to Question Everything
and Argue with Everybody”.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";background:white">Spring HSSP runs <b>each Saturday from Feb 18 to Apr 14</b> (skipping Mar 10). Each class session will be 1-2 hours. The deadline for applying
is <b>Jan 11. </b>You can apply and find more information online at <<a href="http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP" target="_blank">http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP</a>>, or email us at <a href="mailto:spring-hssp@mit.edu" target="_blank">spring-hssp@mit.edu</a>.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";background:white">If you’re looking for a shorter time commitment, you can also teach a <b>one-day class</b> <b>for ESPrinkler or Lecture Series</b>. ESPrinkler
is like a mini-Splash: a selection of one-time short classes that the students can choose from. Instead of enrolling a normal eight-week class for one of their time-blocks, students can instead choose ESPrinkler, and pick something different every week. In
addition, HSSP will be offering lecture series, which are series of classes on a particular general theme, taught by different teachers each week. The topics of this year’s Lecture Series have not been decided, but information on both programs is online at
<<a href="http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP/esprinkler.html" target="_blank">http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP/esprinkler.html</a>>, or you can email us at <a href="mailto:spring-hssp@mit.edu" target="_blank">spring-hssp@mit.edu</a> if you're interested.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";background:white">Don’t know what to teach? Want to improve specific teaching skills? You can get help brainstorming class ideas and improving your teaching with
our new <b>Teacher Lab.</b> There will be three different weekend sessions, each on a different aspect of teaching. You can attend any of the three pairs of sessions independently (although you should attend both sessions in the pair). You can find more information
about Teacher Lab at <<a href="http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP/TeacherLab.html" target="_blank">http://esp.mit.edu/teach/HSSP/TeacherLab.html</a>>.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
