@aapthq.bsky.socialDo you teach physics and need support? Consider applying to the Bauder Fund for assistance with special physics teaching activities. Deadline to apply is December 1. Learn more at ow.ly/c6mV50YnbWE #AAPTFunding #AAPTGrants #ITeachPhysics
@aapthq.bsky.socialCurious about science advocacy? ☕️ Join Roohi Dalal & Dawson Lang for an AAPT Virtual Coffee Hour on Oct 26, 8:30 pm ET! This event is open to the public. ow.ly/CO8O50ZWh3y #AAPTCoffeeHour #PhysicsEducation #ITeachPhysics
@wrightphyshop.bsky.socialCosmic Pathways Chicago Program Posted!
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

@wrightphyshop.bsky.socialCosmic Pathways NYC Sign up Deadline this week!
@flippingphysics.bsky.socialElectric potential is a scalar, so superposition is just addition. Two point charges, one unknown, and the spot where the total potential is zero tells you the sign and relative size of that charge before any algebra. youtu.be/QG9gutOktvs
@aapthq.bsky.socialTake advantage of #AAPTWM27 Early Bird Registration rates! Register today and get ready to hear from outstanding plenary speakers, participate in workshops, informative sessions, events, and more. Early Bird rates end on October 23rd. ow.ly/xXQC50YJ4um #AAPTConference #AAPTMeeting #ITeachPhysics
@flippingphysics.bsky.socialAcceleration in meters per second squared is also meters per second every second. A basketball on an incline makes that click. Same constant acceleration rolling down and coming back up. youtu.be/gc_j1K3UA6w
@ifanghughes.bsky.socialThis week sees the first 2 lectures of Quantum Information and Computing, part of the PHYS4121 Atoms Lasers and Qubits module at @durhamphysics.bsky.social
Themes of the course: can we exploit the weirdness of QM?
How should we go about building a quantum computer?
