@flippingphysics.bsky.socialI sorted all 700+ of my physics videos into 8 more curricula: IB, JEE and NEET, A Level, MCAT, Philippines DepEd, Ontario, Australia, Gaokao. Free pages for each on my site. The laws of physics are the same everywhere. youtu.be/ocUkYKoPYp0
@mqmlab.bsky.socialJoin us! All of us, together, make a difference #ITeachPhysics
@wbrianlane.bsky.social#ITeachPhysics come try out Adventures with Emmy, our STEM education TTRPG in development, at #AAPTWM27 on January 9!
@wrightphyshop.bsky.socialThe Program for this Saturday's Cosmic Pathways Chicago is Live!!! Its going to be amazing!

@aapthq.bsky.socialPhysics educators are invited to share teaching ideas with a welcoming, engaged community at the winter meeting. Share your innovative ideas for teaching physics more effectively and connect with fellow educators by submitting a poster presentation. ow.ly/9iK450ZXA2f #AAPTWM27 #ITeachPhysics
@sstoneb.bsky.socialGreat #timekeeping article here which took me on a real journey! Short version: adding leap seconds ("27 times since 1972") has led to problems for computer systems before and the next one might have to be subtracted, which has never been done at all! #ITeachPhysics
@flippingphysics.bsky.socialTwo point charges, find the net electric field at a point P. Billy solves for the angle, then realizes he never needed it: sine theta was 0.4 over 0.5 all along. Electric field vectors add exactly like forces do. youtu.be/sjPqFxdnCzM
@flippingphysics.bsky.socialI measured the dielectric constant of printer paper with a capacitor made of foil and paper. Stack sheets, measure capacitance, linearize, take the slope. Out comes 2.4, and the published range is 2 to 4. youtu.be/2uNivhQd3hA
@ifanghughes.bsky.social2nd week of lectures for Quantum Information and Computing, part of the PHYS4121 Atoms Lasers and Qubits module at @durhamphysics.bsky.social
Themes of the week: Locating qubit states on the Bloch sphere; free evolution; interaction with a monochromatic field.

Sign up targets met!
Both NY and Chicago conferences are going to be amazing!
@modelinginstruction.orgTeach physics with your students' smartphone and iPad sensors! AMTA's new NSF-funded Coursera course, built with the Physics Toolbox Sensor Suite creators, offers a free certificate for 30 hours of PD and optional low-cost grad credit.

@sstoneb.bsky.socialThis game is really quite fun, even if you aren't a physics nerd. (But it contains extra joy if you ARE a physics nerd.) #ITeachPhysics
@cyber08.bsky.socialSeries vs parallel: students memorize "current splits / voltage splits" without seeing why. So I made it interactive — toggle topology, drag resistances, watch current & voltage redistribute live:
notedeck.ai/interactive/physics/series_parallel_resistors
Computed, not an LLM. #iTeachPhysics #EduSky

@sstoneb.bsky.socialDo any physics people know what's going on with Circuit Scribe, who make (or used to make) conductive ink pens for drawing circuits? They are out of stock everywhere and the actual Circuit Scribe website feels like it's abandoned. I emailed them and got no response. #ITeachPhysics
@cyber08.bsky.socialYoung's double slit is impossible to show on a whiteboard. So I built it interactive — drag slit spacing + wavelength, watch the fringes shift live. In-browser, no signup:
notedeck.ai/interactive/physics/double_slit_interference
Computed, not an LLM, so it's always right. #iTeachPhysics #EduSky
