Today in "What not to buy"

This floated through my social media feed today...





































The comments were appropriately brutal. And it wasn't the anthropomorphization that the commentariat was ruffled about. I suppose that's a risk inherent to advertising on social media. Your sponsored posts are subject to comments. At least they are for now. Facebook, Twitter, et al will no doubt figure out how to fix that so as to reap even greater profits. And why wouldn't they?

In any case, you could certainly acquire one just so that your students could rightly lambaste you during your lessons on circuits, if you're into that sort of thing. By the way, will we even be teaching circuits outside of AP and IB in the NGSS future? I don't see it in the high school physical science DCIs. But I could be wrong. Again, I digress.

Rather than supporting this electronic transgression with my hard-earned money, I downloaded an image or two of the offending item and will add it to the things we talk about when we talk about circuits in class.

But if you're keen to buy, here's the link: Science - You Complete Me
