Physics Online Resources

Howdy all,

Since schools, colleges, and universities all over are planning to shut down, a bunch of us on the TAP-L email list and others have been checking & sharing resources for physics stuff, and here's what we've got so far. This list of information will also be posted to the front page of the Physics Northwest website at https://sites.google.com/site/physicsnorthwest/ - it will be formatted & updated as needed.

**ETA: Thanks to my friend and colleague Dean Baird, he and I were able to work together to format this list into a more manageable Google Document. You can access it here - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N0IyVB4LWCgMZcfPS2m54FW8G_1bn_-7r-SV6cBmfoE/edit?usp=sharing - Again, any feedback is appreciated! :)

If you have any questions, let me know - mlowry@lfschools.net

Keep calm and physics on!

Cheers,

Matt Lowry – PNW Secretary & Webmeister
