#ITeachPhysics I've passed the presidential gavel to @msaphysics.bsky.social, the youngest president in the history of AAPT (Woot!). Debbie Andres has earned EVERY BIT of our confidence, trust, and respect. In my view, she is absolutely the right person for the coming year.
Heading to a meeting of the American Association of Physics Teachers. More than ever, I consider this a magical community. #ITeachPhysics

Engagement!
This Physics outreach truck is now just outside our Center for Natural Sciences (CNS) at Illinois Wesleyan University, ready for student engagement! #ITeachPhysics
Into the breach once more! Our message includes that (a) Science has been and must be good for our nation, and that (b) we ought to be working to broaden participation in science. #AAPT
Join us!
Looking forward to further collaboration with Wolfram on resources (see QR code below) for teaching within Illinois Wesleyan University's 11-course Concentration in Quantum Science & Technology. #ITeachPhysics
Bubbles are the "dolphins" of Physics! (Everyone loves bubbles)
If you have the capacity to do so, support us by becoming (or continuing as) a dues-paying member of AAPT and/or coming to our next national meeting, to enhance (and learn from) this community, as we piece together our next steps. #ITeachPhysics
You can't have science without support of the educational pathways that yield scientists (and science teachers). If you have the capacity to do so, support us by becoming a dues-paying member of AAPT. #ITeachPhysics
