Rumor/suspicionPhysics is starting (or already
is) not an interesting subject for most of
students around the World. Is it true?

• For Physicists
• That rumor becomes a big Concern, since in the
  future there will not be so many Physicists in
  this world
• (or might not be needed anymore?)

One Simple Idea

• Introducing Physics through Physics Toys (not
  too expensive, 1 to 3) from the early ages
  should make Physics more interesting not only for
  students, but also for parents.

Results of Grazs Meeting

• Physics Toys is not just a toy, but there is an
  Education mission behind it.
• Physicists or any bodies interesting in Physics,
  should create their Physics Toys design and send
  it to Physics Toys Coordinator.
• Physics Toys will be produced in Indonesia (due
  to cheap labors) and will be distributed around
  the world to be sold.
• But So Far, there is no Follow-up of Grazs
  meeting. Probably there is not enough
  Socialization to the all Physicists by Our
  Physics Societies.
• Our (every bodies) participation are really
  needed.
• If the toy is produced, the author of the
  Physics toys will get Royalty (has not been
  discussed how many percent).

Question for the Physicists

• Why is PHYSICS not so interesting for most of
  Students at Junior, High and University Students?
• Too Difficult?
• Teachers teaching abilities?
• Can not make Living from it?
• There is no Support from parents?
