I did a presentation about the virtues of using @pascoscientific smart carts in the Physical Science classroom at @tcboe 's STEAM By Design Conference. The lucky winner of the door prize, a pasco smart cart fan accessory, was Jaime Wilkey of Munford Middle School. Thanks Pasco!
As far as I know, this was an original use of the equipment. The pulley on the @pascoscientific meter torque pivot had fixed strings attached to the force sensors on smart carts. Any movement at the pivot point was transmitted to the force sensors.
Students in my #physics class used equipment from @pascoscientific to demonstrate torque at our Technology Showcase yesterday. @BBCMHS @tcboe A model tower crane demonstrated how lifting a load creates a torque and how the load on the fulcrum is reduced by moving the load.
Many thank to @alabamapower for providing @BBCMHS a $7500 grant to help B.B. Comer High complete our new lab! @TCBOE @ALPowerFdn #science
Students and faculty enjoyed our eclipse watch party today. We were joined by @WVTM13 as well. Thanks @LisaCraneWVTM13 and Andrew! @TCBOE @BBCMHS #EclipseSolar2024
Went to the Auburn baseball game Saturday and won a prize by being near the back door of the concession stand on the way out. Movie night all week!
What happens when a physics student is also an athlete? Lots of scholarships! @BBCMHS @TCBOE @TuskegeeUniv
Two of my graduated students brought this by today and left it for me. Thank you so much @EMorelad and @savvchelle! It's perfect! I thought I'd seen every science themed Tshirt out there, but I'd never seen this before.
