Functions in programming and functions in Maths this week! If you teach both, why not combine the two, e.g. if f(x) = x² and g(x) = x + 1, then you could code both as functions to reinforce the programming concepts and demonstrate the difference between f(g(2)) and g(f(2)). #TeamCompSci

This year's edition of Rings of Fire!
Students are given initial height and velocity of the launched marble. Each group has to calculate the height of their ring at their assigned horizontal distance.

Students often struggle to determine the result of calling the two parameter substring method. This video might help!

This is a thoughtful response to the @nytimes.com article advocating calling on US education systems to make computer science and artificial intelligence mandatory components of K12 schooling (original article here: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/30/t...) #TeamCompSci

I wish we used the metric system more widely, here. That and 24-hour time (military time).

Pascal was one of the first programming languages I learned. 😀

@the-physics-well.net Wow, thank you so much! PTSOS meetings have always been my happy place since 2016. You guys "saved me" from corporate America :) I miss PTSOS very much. <3 #iTeachPhysics
Congratulations @savioscience.bsky.social, you are my 1k follower! You have won a PTSOS physics teaching equipment item, otherwise known as a goodie. DM me your address and I will mail it to you. You also win this bonus @loosepartsguy.bsky.social cartoon, slightly modified be me #ITeachPhysics
