I think the phrase that I need to sit with, which is a contradiction in my mind, is "reproducible but at low precision"

Doesn't it though? The five 100g measurements may have high uncertainty compared to measurements going out to 0.01, but if repeat measurements give same exact results, isn't that precise? Is this a difference between common language and scientific? Bc I do get that's how we'd use "precise" in life.

Often are in the US as well; I interpreted Dan's comment as tongue in cheek. As in, the voltmeter isn't "part of the circuit", it's an appendage of the circuit (so to speak) because of infinite R (ideally) and not part of e- loop path (the actual "circuit").
Just my guess

Irrelevant to your post but the intensity graph showing up before light hits the screen looks odd to me

I think it's impossible for the voter to believe he shouldn't be in. So I choose to think they decided to use their limited votes to boost up some other deserving candidates. There is no prestige coming with a unanimous selection (Jeter, others...)

Always done opposite here. Wondering, how does fan cart work? Collect data of m and a by using same fan, change mass on it, use position sensor to measure slope of v-t? Noticing y=1/x pattern so ma was constant,-->N2?

Would the less pink in the early 2000's mean that predictions used to be more accurate?

I'd say zero difference.

"Deriving"

Reminds me of the Eisenhower quote, "Plans are useless, but planning is indispensable."

I think he was talking about the army, but still, seems like a transferable sentiment.

If there's no compromise to be had? The former. As a single teacher, realistically, it was the latter. But family and kids are priority and I cannot have regrets when it comes to that. Obviously finding the balance would be ideal.

Is it fun? I guess that's part of my question. Test=Fun, I'm wondering if that would be a hard sell. We don't have a physics team, just 1 physics teacher (me). My kids are generally stressed out about lots of things already. But I'm curious about it....

I definitely boycott water when I know I'm in for a long stretch... has gotten worse the older I get too. The worst is finally getting that break and seeing 3 other teachers already lined up, when there's just a couple minutes to get back to class

Got it, thank you. Maybe it's just semantics but isn't the scientific method still in the curriculum then? Or maybe I don't understand what most people mean when they say the phrase.

My schools assessment criteria are ingrained with method eval, lab design, analysis comm, data org and all these skills are traditionally assessed via trad lab reports. I'm assuming you weren't meaning all this was removed from the curriculum? Maybe removed the reports but assess skills another way?

I'm curious what this means. No more memorizing the sci method steps? No more traditional lab reports?
