  1. This is a reminder that this Saturday, OPTYCs presents a free workshop on Matter & Interactions by Chabay, Sherwood, Titus, and Spicklemire. Aaron Titus and I will facilitate. M&I was first implemented here in North Carolina as a TYC curriculum and is a viable, modern calculus-based physics curriculum for TYC students. Please join us! #ITeachPhysics #Pedagogy #Andragogy #ModernCurriculum #CommunityCollege #TYC #OPTYCs

  2. OPTYCs (Organization for Physics in Two-Year Colleges) is funded by NSF DUE 2212807 and we are looking for TYC faculty to apply for our Leadership Institute, New Faculty Development Series, and Creating Environments that Reach Every Student cohort programs. These are 16 month, 12 month, and 24 month programs respectively. DM me or see the website! #ITeachPhysics #TwoYearCollegePhysics #CommunityCollegePhysics #OPTYCs #AAPT

  3. At the 2025 AAPT Winter Meeting in St. Louis, MO, OPTYCs is looking for presenters to facilitate a workshop on implementing sensor-based physics in the train-the-trainer model where participants will train to be workshop facilitators. Compensation will be provided for travel costs, workshop fees, lodging (two nights for full-day workshop), and an honorarium. Hit me up if you're interested! #ITeachPhysics #AAPT #OPTYCs

  4. Do you have a VPython or Web VPython project you would like to share in a workshop for TYC physics faculty? This is an open invitation to participate in the OPTYCs CPDW series of workshops. DM me if interested. You need not be TYC faculty to participate! OPTYCs is funded by NSF-DUE-2212807.
