    My #PHYS1303 students suggested last lecture topics, then rank-voted them. The result? They are collectively most interested in black holes and the ultimate fate of the cosmos. My last lecture of the semester will be entitled: "Lives of Stars, Death of a Universe" https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1120332420400787456/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/57016

    Finished assembling and editing the draft of a little video project my "Assistants of T.E.A.C.H.I.N.G." strongly encouraged as a coda on our semester of #PHYS1303. Shout out @filmprofmark for his 5-min. "How not to suck" film-making lesson, and for hosting its "screening"!

    Today is payday for my students in #PHYS1303. Every time I make a mistake in my class, I put a dollar in the mistake jar at the front of the class. Enough mistakes = donuts for the class. It is ok to make mistakes. Admit them. Own them. Learn from them. Don't quit. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1103640934540021768/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/55726

    We measured and calculated the heck out of this projectile motion demonstration yesterday! The power of 2D motion equations, measurement with rulers and mobile phones, and student engagement! #PHYS1303 https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1093889955917692928/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/54506

    Sound advice for my #PHYS1303 students. Learning to handle the limits of your knowledge - and, yes, failure - is a crucial step toward learning to succeed. Find courage in your struggles. Look to yourself to understand your mistakes. https://twitter.com/jenheemstra/status/1090960769309585408

    Today is the first class of @SMU #PHYS1303. My teaching assistants and I assembled to bring introductory mechanics to students with interests in #engineering, #computerscience, #lifescience, and #physics. (also having some Marvel-inspired fun here in @SMUPhysics!) https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1087734129863475200/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/53840

    I have my students in #PHYS1303 do a 1-D motion problem on this very subject on their first homework assignment. Not an easy problem. Hard to visualize. This is PERFECT. https://twitter.com/universal_sci/status/1079044080208773122

    That day's activities: getting the DOE proposal project repo. into shape for my colleagues at SMU; writing summary report of #PHYS1303 course for our undergraduate committee; summarizing graduate recruitment notes. None of it finalized yet. But, time to pause.

    The last lecture of the Fall 2018 #PHYS1303, "Light and the Dark Cosmos," is now up on YouTube: https://t.co/289QC6GdYI This includes the classroom lecture (80 min.) and the "lost lecture" on dark matter I intended to give but ran out of time. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1069622771263655937/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/53024

    I'm excited about the last lecture of #PHYS1303 today, "Light and the Dark Cosmos"! By the way, non-#PHYS1303 students and @SMU colleagues are welcome to attend (FOSC 123, 09:30), but remember this is a class: seats and Q&A prioritized for students in my class. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1068149820391604225/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/53001

    .@SMU #PHYS1303 students have spoken. With 43 votes (out of 117 students), the winning topics are: dark energy (and the accelerated expansion of the universe); the physics of the speed of light; and dark matter. The final lecture will be entitled "Light and the Dark Cosmos"! https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1067103447265234946/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/52938
