“I spent the best 16 days of my life
studying concepts of physics that
completely redefined the way I look at
the world around me, with the most
brilliant group of people I have
ever met.”
– 2012 ISSYP participant Radhika Singhal, India
Taking the Show on the Road:
GoPhysics! and Physica Phantastica
This year, six one-day GoPhysics! camps were held across the
country, giving a snapshot of the ISSYP experience to approximately
25 students at a time.
In addition, over 2,100 students throughout Ontario and the rest of
Canada got excited about physics through entertaining and accessible
Physica Phantastica presentations. Physica Phantastica seeds
scientific literacy and creativity among grades 7 to 12, illuminating
connections between the scientific enquiry into the forces governing
the universe and the discovery of new knowledge and technologies.
