I just want to know what @pascoscientific.bsky.social was thinking when they named this product. The word "oscillator" is right there #iteachphysics 🎢

Parallel circuits should be called current adders instead of current dividers #iteachphysics

One goal of mine is to have a quantitative, not-simulated lab for every equation on the AP Physics equation sheets. I'm glad @mburnskaurin.bsky.social's shared this delicious idea for thermal conduction. #iteachphysics

Here's an air capacitor, an air battery (bike pump), and a switch (valve). You can see the capacitor charging and discharging, and most students agree no air passes through the rubber membrane of the air capacitor. #iteachphysics

Crowdsourcing opinions! Comment below!

We are currently choosing furniture for the physics rooms in our new science building. Which would you choose? #iteachphysics

Option A - Adjustable height and casters. No storage. Three to a table.

Option B - Fixed in place. Yes Storage. Two to a table side.

Practicing solving in terms of variables! I think this better communicates what I mean by "solve in terms of given variables before plugging in values" more than saying "solve in terms of the given variables before plugging in values." #iteachphysics

It finally happened this year! One of my favorite types of questions from students.

"Mr. Milliano, can we assume that this person pulling the penguin on a sled is on Earth?" #iteachphysics #QuestionEverything

Similarly, has anyone tried to do a Newton's Second Law lab with constant force springs? #iteachphysics

Does anyone know if retractable ID lanyards provide a constant force, and if the magnitude of that force is independent of load? They could be a game changer for Newton's Second Law labs, if so. #iteachphysics 🎢🧪⚛️

So your dependent variable decreases as your independent variable increases. Now what? 🎢🧪

So fun life update: I'm moving to Seattle! That means my job (at what is truly a dream school) is open. Perks and salary schedule are listed below. #iteachphysics #modphys

The secret to getting people to think you're a good cook is to use waaaaaay more oil and butter when you cook for guests than you'd ever do for yourself

Headed to Boston for the weekend, and I'm excited to have @alomshaha.bsky.social's book "Why Don't Things Fall Up?" with me for my in-flight entertainment! 🎢
