Welcome to PhysTEC-opoly! This game celebrates and promotes both the Physics Teacher Education Coalition (PhysTEC) and Get the Facts Out (GFO). PhysTEC is an NSF grant-funded project of the American Physical Society (APS) and the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) to address the shortage of physics teachers in the US – our dream is that every high school student has the opportunity to learn physics. GFO grew out of PhysTEC into its own NSF grant-funded project to change the conversation around STEM teacher recruitment.
Detailed game instructions are available here (opens in a new tab). For this PhysTEC/GFO themed game, we recognize PhysTEC's 5+ Club Awardees (as of April 2024) by promoting them as the Street properties on a Monopoly-style board game (2-8 players).
Because we have more awardees than spaces on a Monopoly board, there are two boards to choose from. The table below specifies which institutions are on which board (you can click on the header names to sort on a column).
If you are playing solo and would like to have computer player(s) enabled, please see the links below.
