Re-take to deepen your practice.) RESERVE A SEAT at: https://physics.asu.edu/node/2349 . See: modeling.asu.edu [Share with high school & TYC teachers of all sciences and math.] PEER LEADERS: Jeff Steinert, Javier Melendez * Modeling Instruction teaches students to think, to be autonomous life-long learners. It infuses 21st century workplace skills into physics content. * Even PhDs in physics laud it, for its effective pedagogy. * Great background for all other sciences. PHS 530/PHY 480, Modeling Instruction in mechanics, is a Methods of Physics Teaching course that thoroughly addresses most aspects of high school and TYC physics teaching, including integration of effective teaching methods with course content. The course incorporates up-to-date results of physics education research, best curriculum materials, use of technology, and experience in collaborative learning and guidance. It's harmonious with AZ science standards. 3-D learning. QUESTIONS? jane.jackson@asu.edu

Looking to advance your physics teaching skills? The FREE Mechanics Modeling Workshop at Arizona State University from June 2 to 20 is one of the best ways to do it: physics.asu.edu/node/2349 #ITeachPhysics

Something (relaxing) for the weekend… 〰️ #ITeachPhysics #MINTEdu #PhysikEdu

I've noticed that they 'get' uniform electric fields much easier when they've seen this...

The egg stamper! Always glorious. #iteachphysics

When you make up a test near Christmas, the big guy keeps an eye on you!
(Yup, we do Christmas. We’re an Episcopal college prep school.)

Student Today:
“This test is looking like I’m going to have to marry rich.”
😆
(This student always does fine.)

Bluesky is emerging as the new platform for science - Mike Young Academy Scientific Twitter is about to find its true successor. And it is not X. This, our latest release, shows that the Bluesky network of scientists is growing — and growing.

Ooooo!

Ziplock bags of white chemicals.

Sketchy white powder lab!
Given the moles in each bag and a list of compounds, match the compound to the bag. No instructions given. It’s a good light bulb lab for students just learning the mole. #iteachchem

Cool. Thanks!

Where did you find a transparent one?? That would be great!

I love this one!
New platform, new tricks. Here's a downloader I used for this video to save to my files: www.bskydownloader.com

Firefly. Always Firefly.

Wow!! So cool.

Me please!

My favorite thing today was making the kids hold the mole when it was their turn to speak.

It works in your favor at least once a year!

I love that you got a ramp in there! My campus needs more ramps...

Pick me! I had mostly given up on X. I'd love to join in on #SciEd convos here!

THIS! I find it a very humanizing situation. I "doctor" my family photos often just to have everyone looking at the camera at the same time. It has nothing to do with glamour.

Hope it goes well!

Thanks! It was a crazy thing! And best wishes on your recovery as well. :)

Glad you're doing ok! I one-upped you and had a 12cm liver tumor removed this summer. No cancer and livers regrow!! I'm feeling quite lucky.

Algebra helper.

Second year I've done this activity in my #iteachphysics class. Each group gets a target paper and an assigned drop height. They drop a marker 5 times onto the target and discuss accuracy vs precision. Each group gets 5 📌 to add to this target with all the groups' data. 🎢🧪

Welcome @noelpauller.bsky.social!
Check out posts by @afreeparticle.com to learn how he has lists organized for science educators. It's pretty awesome!

Today was my 4th time being fingerprinted at my school. I guess that makes this my 20th year there! #teacherlife

You can do it! More coffee!

What a sweet gig!! Congrats on new beginnings. :)
