Abstract

Education in Ontario is undergoing a period of rapid change and we have been successful in providing support to local and provincial educators teaching grades 6 through 12. The Southwestern Ontario Section of the Optical Society of America is a local section of the parent organisation, whose members come from industry and academia. Ours is the second section established in Canada and we recruit both student and professional members with an interest in optics and photonics. The Optical Society of America encourages local sections to include educational outreach in their activities. We are undertaking a multi-faceted effort to accomplish this.
