2013 Day in the life of a UW physics student video contest
Student teams (undergrads and grads) are invited to submit a short video related to their life as a physics student, about Garage Physics, or illustrating a physics topic (e.g. a demonstration) to be featured in the Wisconsin Physicist and on the Physics Department website. Videos may be posted to YouTube or Vimeo and links sent to Carlsmith and Unks. The sky is the limit but good taste imperative. Some ideas may be found by searching YouTube and checking out the links below. Work will be judged upon creativity, team work, uniqueness, 'wow' factor. No boring lectures please but sneaking in physics education for the public is encouraged.
Got a favorite video? Post to the Diigo social bookmarking group with the tags yourname, garage, video, youtube and why someone might want to watch it.
