I agree. I would rather have something in the back to keep me paced without having to check the time on the computer or sneak a glance at my phone.

I have considered borrowing the big countdown clock that the swim team puts on the pool deck until admin relents, but I'm not that much of a rebel 😂

What if I told you that there are no clocks in our classrooms and that the decision was intentional?

Or when they read half of the directions, and then stop just before the part that answers their question.

Pyret uses kebab-case (dashes). It's just interesting to see how language dependent the conventions are

This is the biggest thing that holds me back from sharing a lot of the time. Most of what I do just feels derivative of something that someone else has done "better" and has already shared that I just lurk and scroll instead of engaging.

Mostly CS here. For physics I use subscripts but constantly fight with myself over the length of subscripts, especially with forces. Too long, they become unreadable and inelegant but too short and you lose meaning and connection.

They are my most used piece of lab equipment as well. So many different uses all year long.

The Mistborn books are the most common entry point. The first book is titled The Final Empire.

I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Very excited for Wind and Truth release in less than a month!

I plan on doing this with honors 9th grade students. I would imagine that it can be done with any class, but some would require more scaffolding than others.

Definitely adding this the the rotation after we get through accelerated motion!

In a just world, this sentence would be slapped across every single LLM-based app by law, like Cigarettes Cause Cancer.

I love this! Definitely going to try it with my AP C class despite the demographic differences (I am at an all-boys HS).

AP C class is working through momentum unit, lab later this week.

CMPF is beginning the Colliding Buggies lab. Big week!
