From JasonWhitely https://twitter.com/JasonWhitely on Twitter: #BREAKING: In announcing a "shelter-in-place" order for Dallas County, @JudgeClayJ Jenkins shows two graphs that helped him make the decision. "It makes me sick we're at this point," he said. https://twitter.com/JasonWhitely/status/1241858518291972103/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/63992 -

Watching the BBC Horizon program "Fermat's Last Theorem," which I haven't watched since (EARLY) graduate school . I forgot how delightful this story of mathematics (albeit condensed and filtered) was. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1241860598834610181/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/63989 -

"Exercise without distraction" One benefit of social distancing and self-isolation has been exercise. Because my work is conducted out of my home office, and because I am not interrupted by unscheduled things that erupt in my workplace, I am able to better focus and stick to my need for regular exercise. As a result, over the past 3 ⦠Continue reading "Exercise without distraction" https://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/2020/03/21/exercise-without-distraction/ ( Feed URL: http://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/feed/ ) -

Just communicated the full digitization of my two courses, Modern Physics (#PHYS3305) and Honors Physics (#PHYS1010), to all my students. Glad I made a Plan A, B, C, and D. Just executed Plan C. My students are smart and tough, up for a challenge. Let's do this! https://twitter.com/SMU/status/1241134167972290560 -

"What I learned this week" I have really thrown myself into physics, since I am stuck at home (a) because there is a pandemic and (b) because SMU wonât let me on campus until tomorrow (because I was abroad when they ended work-related international travel 2 weeks ago). This has been a grand opportunity. Here are some things I learned ⦠Continue reading "What I learned this week" https://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/2020/03/20/what-i-learned-this-week/ ( Feed URL: http://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/feed/ ) -

Online teaching tip: (Mac edition!) Mac users might be surprised to find out that tools like Zoom won't share their whole desktop, even when they try to do so. It's a security feature! You need to enable it in the system settings: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250723493 #TheMoreYouKnow https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1240985542306775041/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/63718 -

Online teaching tip: when using a video system to lecture or communicate, the 1st thing you should learn (besides how to connect to the system) is how to mute all the other users. Somebody will have a hot mic. Save them the embarrassment. #TheMoreYouKnow Thx @FirstGenPhys! https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1240822305137266689/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/63708 -

"The home office" I spent today mainly in a online-only workshop for the Electron-Ion Collider, a new (and partly funded) accelerator project to be hosted by Brookhaven National Accelerator Laboratory in the U.S. Iâm just listening and learning right now, but I am trying to get thinking about heavy flavor measurements with such a machine (which, as the ⦠Continue reading "The home office" https://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/2020/03/19/the-home-office/ ( Feed URL: http://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/feed/ ) -

When teaching is forced to go from in-person to digital, communication is a crucial teaching task. I've been using bulletins in Canvas to do this for my classes. I've also spun up a podcast: https://t.co/MB1ENJMQfJ for our uncertain times. Short tales of physics life.
