Great update by @veritasium to his original (excellent) video on energy transmission in a circuit. The shout-out to M&I is quite appreciated (@VPython_Code, @aaronptitus). Definitely watch his if you teach circuits #ITeachPhysics youtu.be/oI_X2cMHNe0

I've been thinking a lot about the discourse around "physics is hard." Like, it *is* hard, but implicit in the discussion is a persistent framing of difficulty as a gatekeeping tool (1/n)

Let's Code Physics videos are going to release once per week for the time being. I'm nearing the end of a search for a permanent job and the process is becoming more time-intensive and stressful. Additionally, we're down to 1 car so I can't get to my recording computer as often.

We don't get to physics in my computational physics course until this Friday, still working on basics of computation. We did do some Monte Carlo Integration though.

We just completed the first set of tutorials and pivoted into a new modeling unit. We'll pivot back and do more based on the new model. Wash rinse repeat. I really enjoy seeing what my students come up with!

Have you seen our fabulous suite of sims for exploring the Area Model for multiplication (of numbers and polynomials!)?? Check out the power of this dynamic representation to help your students! #MTBoS #math #Mathematics #STEM #edtech #OER phet.colorado.edu/en/simulat…
I really want to help prepare pre-engineering Ss in intro physics to be more in the know @ CS for when they move on. Feel as though I need a bit more PD to pull it off successfully. @gopicup helped a lot at #aaptsm19, I just need some time to weave it in
