Description

The newly-created Organization for Physics at Two-Year Colleges (OPTYCs), under the auspices of AAPT, will resurrect previous workshop series and programs for professional development, reduce isolation for TYC faculty through networking and mentoring opportunities, and create a culture of PER for TYCs nationally. In this talk, I will describe the vision for OPTYCs and outline the various programs that are planned in the coming years. OPTYCs is a one-stop shop for physics at TYCs, and welcomes participation from all physics teachers. (Supported by NSF-IUSE-2212807.)
