maybe something like this, discussing Feynman diagrams? www.ias.edu/ideas/2009/a...
Or maybe, if your Ss are good at decomposing vectors, make up a problem with a zillion forces? I see this issue too, and i think AI is to blame

Hey #iteachphysics, what are you using for nuclear/radiation experiments?

Nuclear structure from IB physics unit E.1 by inquiry

A lesson plan about the model minority myth in science classes, with the underrep.com team

On a personal note, I've started writing for the InThinking IB Physics site. I've got lots to share over the next couple years π’

βͺA gift for science teachers in πΊπΈ: I wrote a 45-minute lesson plan based on MLK Jr's Nobel Prize speech in which students contrast the pace of scientific/technological progress with the pace of moral justice π’

#iTeachPhysics
Trying emergent curriculum in large-enrollment intro college physics this semester. Each unit:
1. demo βοΈ
2. theory-building πͺ
3. conventions and notation π§βπ«
4. worked examples π§βπ«
5. craft and choose learning goal πͺ
6. write example problems πͺ
7. homework, tests π§βπ
Will share details later!
