	Teaching Excellence
		In 1972, Richard Feynman was awarded the Oersted Medal for his outstanding contributions to physics teaching at a national meeting of the American Physical Society.
		It was so very clear why he, already a Nobel laureate, was awarded the Oersted Medal - for teaching - having so brilliantly modelled the process.
		I saw Richard Feynman again fifteen years later - only three months before his death, and obviously very ill. The occasion was a physics teachers conference - his last professional meeting.
