High school Physics Teacher working with the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics developing classroom resources. Any opinions expressed are my own.
The heat in the Southwest U.S. is incredible. #Vegas saw its fifth day with temps of at least 115°F (46°C). During the first nine days of July, ~2.2 billion gallons of water just vaporized from Lake #Shasta.
This isn't normal. #ActOnClimate#climate#energy#renewables
On Thursday, August 1, PI will present a short talk with Claudia de Rham about her fascinating journey in pursuit of gravity’s true nature. The talk will be followed by an in-depth conversation with Nahlah Ayed, host of @CBC’s Ideas.

As a "baby" teacher I participated in @Perimeter's teacher program, EinsteinPlus, and it transformed my teaching practice.
Last week (18 years later) I had the privilege to be on the facilitation team at #EPLUS2024 with a great group of humans. My #physics ❤️ is full.
Had a great time presenting with @DaveFishPI@Perimeter workshops at @cern for #hst2024. The new science Gateway is spectacular and the teachers were amazing. Thanks @DrJeffWiener!
I don’t promote my books too much here but if you’re suddenly saying: shoot, gotta get something for Mother’s Day, this is truly a good choice: https://t.co/gsiLX0lHrn
I’ve run the exoplanet breakout box a lot now and I have a few tricks up my sleeve. I’m trying out some new ways to share beyond Twitter so you can find them on Instagram and YouTube @physicswithmcp
Thanks @EMacGillHDSB for inviting @Perimeter to work with your students on Climate Change and what we can do about it. First task to addressing the problem is figuring out where the Greenhouse Gases come from.
Flying to Saskatoon today and fired up a cosmic ray detector at altitude. The count was ~26/s as opposed to just below 1/s baseline back home. Neat! [Thanks to @uw_icecube for the loan of the detectors!] #iteachphysics#internationalcosmicday
Congratulations to Perimeter’s Educational Outreach Team for their remarkable achievement, winning the 2024 Excellence in Physics Education Award from the American Physical Society (APS).

Had a great GoPhysics! day with in Cranberry Portage @physicswithmcp . Students learned about Exoplanets and Expanding Universe using @Perimeter resources
Last week, Grade 9 Science students from O’Gorman High School in Timmins learned about astrophysics and cosmology from Perimeter Institute Teachers in Residence.
