training


For the 1996 Canadian Radiation Protection Association (CRPA) Annual 
conference, to be held in Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, we plan to have a 
pre-meeting session for various primary and high school teachers from the 
area.

We want to cover basics such as what is radiation and a half-life, a bit 
about dosimetry and environmental monitoring, possibly something on health 
effects, and because of the nearby nuclear generating station, emergency 
preparedness.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, I vaguely remember a posting (about 1.5 years ago) where someone used 
popcorn for teaching the concept of decay.  Does anyone still have this 
information?

In advance, many thanks.
