Comic: Types of Board Game. [Each panel has a person, a person with a ponytail, a person with shoulder-length hair, and a person with a white hat seated around a table with different board game and pieces on top. (1) Boring: PERSON 3: Each turn, roll a die and move your token. Turns proceed clockwise around the table until we all get tired and go home.

The Congress of Vienna convenes. You are each in charge of distributing and lighting candles for the opening ball, which was held at these three locations... (4) Overcomplicated: PERSON 4: It’s a cross between *Twilight Imperium* and *Cones of Dunshhire*, but implemented entirely in category theory. Every cone is a monad, and... (5) Cooperative: PERSON 3: We’re working together to sort these decks of cards using only hand gestures. After that, we’ll silently organize my junk drawer. (6) Branded: PERSON 1: You can play as Phoebe, Chandler, Monica, Rachel, Ross, Joey, or, due to an ill-advised tie-in, Goku. (7) Party: PERSON 2: Each of the cards in your hand has a bad word on it.

You have an amazing gift for creating several layers of meaning with the title, art, and even day of posting

A visual of a chess board depicting competition among students.

K-12 grading practices:

Competence > Competition.

I made some charts to illustrate how the various Winter Olympic Sports, Locations, and Athletes have been mentioned on Jeopardy! over the years. Let me know if you notice any interesting patterns or something I missed!

I just made a reddit post about two Kickstarter campaigns that compiled a bunch of historical board games into one box. Let me know what you think! www.reddit.com/r/boardgames...

What game?!

My first two thoughts:
1: 4 minutes of correcting a student's behavior now may save 40 minutes later
2: Effective responses should teach the other kids about appropriate behavior and consequences.
So I wouldn't see that as a total waste, unless the student just needs an alternative placement.

I made graphs about all the tennis players mentioned on Jeopardy!, comparing how often they were asked about during and after their careers, as well as Singles vs. Doubles success.
#tennis #jeopardy #dataviz

I can't believe those athletes wasted all that time lifting weights. There isn't a single barbell on the field during a game!

Yeah, these "For Babies" books are not as good as the "Baby Loves" series: a.co/d/6FTTFaJ

We've reached the bad place where people are writing things with AI to people who summarize them with AI.

I'm trying to make graphs of every topic on Jeopardy, and this time I did a couple for golf. This is the list of golfers who were mentioned more than once and one a Major. Data is from PGA and J-Archive and I made the graphics in Affinity. #golf #dataviz #jeopardy

Science Teachers Rare As “Unicorns”—So Why Cut Their Premier Award? 40-year program honoring America's best STEM teachers paused. 4,000+ past winners wonder: Why eliminate $10K award that costs 1¢ per citizen & addresses teacher shortage?

As proud as I was to add my name to the list of Utah PAEMST winners, I was disappointed to realize I will be the last. Thanks to Talia Milgrom-Elcott for including my thoughts here. And thanks to my wife for reminding me I'm too old to say I made Forbes "under 30."

I’ve been trying to study every Boxing clue that has shown up on Jeopardy! Based on my research, I decided to make three charts of what I found interesting. The data is from J-Archive, BoxRec, and IMDb. I used DataWrapper and Affinity Designer to make the graphics.

Man, it's bittersweet that in my last year of teaching I finally have almost every student pass the AP Physics 1 test. That new curriculum helped, but I also finally had a good system of test prep.

We found that metronomes are great for time!

What if a college was recruiting a girl who ran a 4:30 mile, but downgraded her scholarship because she ran a 6:30 in 9th grade? That's exactly what they do with GPA, weighing your abilities from 3 years ago the same as your accomplishments today. #edusky #gradingreform

Some other general science channels you probably know are SciShow, Be Smart, Kurzgesagt, and VSauce, who is another creator that has taken a break to focus on his subscription business (Curiosity Box). Let me know if I missed any of your favorites! 19/19

The rest: 3Blue1Brown often brings Physics into his math videos. Slow Motion Guys has excellent clips for a Physics class. Other smaller Physics/Engineering channels worth checking out are Up and Atom, Alpha Phoenix, Science Asylum, Fermilab, Real Engineering, and Engineer Guy. 18/x

The Andromeda-Milky Way Collision YouTube video by PBS Space Time

PBS SpaceTime is amazing for Quantum and Astrophysics, just look at any of their playlists. They used to do more questions and answers, and my physics class was featured at the end of this video! 15/x www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P1x...

This Rod Fountain Finally Proves Me Right YouTube video by Steve Mould

Sand Castle Holds Up A Car! - Mechanically Stabilized Earth YouTube video by Practical Engineering

Practical Engineering explains civil infrastructure, like Stabilized Earth, Water Towers, and the Power Grid with physics equations to explain what is happening. I can’t imagine teaching a unit on Pressure without his videos. 12/x www.youtube.com/watch?v=0olp...

Running Off A Vehicle Backwards At The Same Speed That It Is Driving Forward! YouTube video by The Action Lab

The Action Lab has thrived by making short clips with clickbait titles that bring people into his full videos. I really enjoy his simple experiments on Relative Motion, Mirrors, Perpetual Motion, and Infrared. 11/x www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q4f...

Why is the Solar System Flat? YouTube video by minutephysics
