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.
Planck’s Play-Doh! 🟣 Calculating Planck’s constant with a circuit using Play-Doh as a variable resistor. Thanks for your passion @laura_pankratz and @MsTorriePhysics loved the lab. Such a great time at #eplus2024@Perimeter
Today is the kickoff for EinsteinPlus at PI!
The one-week intensive workshop for high school teachers offers a unique opportunity for teachers to learn some of the latest developments in modern physics.
This workshop is made possible by the support of Power Corporation of Canada.
Another successful Science Olympics Season in the books! Thank you @westernuScience@westernuPhysAst for a great day. The hilight for me was watching the @vicparkci Rube Goldberg Team launch a mini me at the end of their machine. ❤️
The Quantum for Educators teacher workshop at @QuantumIQC is being held July 29-31 this year, for high-school teachers looking to introduce #quantum to their students with affordable, curriculum-relevant activities.

A photo from my #SNC1W class this week. There were some really creative designs and great discussions about conductors, grounding and electric discharge.
Hey high school physics and astronomy teachers out there! This is an amazing opportunity for professional development. One of the best I've ever been to!
Day 2 of #IBGlobalConference#IBGC2023: The IB's approach to developments with AI. "This isn't about technology. It is about the education system" - Dr. Matt Glanville (Director of IB Assessment). Today we discussed some really tough but important questions.
You know what is an unexpected treat @TRIUMFLab? The 7 apple trees that are descendents of the apple tree at Sir Isaac Newton's home. The 6 outer trees represent the 6 sectors of the TRIUMF cyclotron magnet. #physics#iteachphysics
#ScienceOlympics back in action @westernuScience@westernuPhysAst#RubeGoldberg machine - the challenge: carry out a simple task in the most complicated way possible. Extra points for each different physics principle employed - how many can you identify from the winning team?
