#iteachphysics UbFPM Practicum: Galileo Incline. 3D printed bell holders for Pasco tracks. I'm uploading the file to Printables, but if you have any ideas for a useful custom attachment for Pasco tracks, I have a student very eager to use/expand on this design. Let me know.
#iteachphysics Bad Question of the Day. Name that misconception. [Actual College Exam Question...not the same prof as last time :)]
Okay I think I finally figured out FBDs!!!Many thanks to Professor “unnamed” (note that everything in black was his actual FBD). Who needs an interaction diagram amirite?! #iteachphysics #pnot #1diagramtorulethemall
TIL that Inertia is a Force with direction. Former students are in collegiate Intro Engineering Physics class. Professor (Ph.D.) teaches them to include "Inertia Force" on all FBDs. Also, that "normal force had to be down because there needs to be a normal force down onto...
#iteachphysics #glowscript @rjallain Please help! What am I missing? I'm getting a printed value greater than the while loop condition (while v < 39...but printing v = 39.3 m/s)... trinket.io/glowscript/5a25ff…
Quiz reflection (no grade) with the kids today...Concerned that I still can't craft useful multiple choice. Anyone have any good resources/tips for crafting valuable multiple choice?
We didn't get to discuss yet, but option 3 felt like a throwaway... #modphys #iteachphys

S wants to make musical motion maps with notes as position and real-time visual output. Any1 seen this? Interested? #modphys #iteachphysics
Day 5: AP made stop motion videos to match graphs then verified w/ video analysis. Came back during free period to analyze slinky #teach180
Day 4: Good disc on Models and Representations, observations, measurements, and assumptions. Then gap vs. marbles. #modphys #iteachphysics
Day 2/3 cont: Thoughts and prayers with our neighbors affected by Harvey. Thanks to @RedCross and @SalvationArmyUS. Donate if you can.
Day 2/3: Grade Level Retreats = no class. So I'll plug @pivot_is for first AP Physics C assignment. @bohacekp and @VernierST are phenomenal!
Day 1. 20 minute class so we introduced norms and CER. And yes there were hot dogs for lunch. Thanks @rutherfordcasey! #teach180 #modphys
Thanks to Tom Smith and @fpoodry @VernierST for showing how the sausage is made. Still support Apple II! Really?!! #iteachphysics
Feel like I just spent 10 mins at 10 meters! That underwater camera! nyti.ms/2jOD8lE #wcydwt #videoanalysis #modphys #iteachphysics
