I am very excited that my recent article came out today in The Physics Teacher. It’s called “We Can’t Ignore the Pandemic Fallout in Our Physics Classes.”

M . Wright. We Can’t Ignore the Pandemic Fallout in Our Physics Classes. Phys. Teach. 61, 326-327 (2023). https://doi.org/10.1119/5.0133979 And here is the submitted version.

I had to remind myself of this article (that I wrote) as I was barrelling down toward finals. I made some adjustments to my classes. I dropped one exam in one class. In another class, I am having the students do a textbook project for the final instead of my usual nasty final. Don’t worry, I have been pushing them hard up until this point. 🙂

And since every post needs a picture, I had AI (picsart.com) generate an image for me of “badass Laser physicist that cares about students”
