  • Workshop at AAPT WM26
    Saturday, January 17, 2026
    Half-day workshop
    PICUP Workshop: Tools for Integrating Computation into Intro- Spreadsheets, Web Vpython, Trinkets, and Google Colab Focus on the actual implementation of computational physics in the classroom by working on several exercises as a student might do so. These will use spreadsheets and browser-based coding environments, so attendees will not need any software installed, but will need to bring their own laptop computer. Previous programming experience is not required. PICUP will provide a partial reimbursement of $40 of the workshop registration fee to those who attend and complete this workshop. This project is funded in part by the National Science Foundation under DUE IUSE grants 2337049, 2337050, 2337051, 2337052, 2337053, 2337054, 2337055, 2337056.
