About this event

Have you ever wondered how Beast Academy books are made? AoPS Academy is proud to host Beast Academy Science Product Director Amanda Turk for a live Q&A!

At this event, you'll get a sneak peek at the creative process behind an upcoming addition to the Beast Academy universe: Beast Academy Science! Learn how we design new characters and settings, how we take the guide and practice books from script to finished product, and more. 

We'll also hold a short Q&A, so feel free to bring any questions you have about working on the AoPS curriculum team or about the making of Beast Academy books. 

Meet Amanda Turk: 

Amanda is the Product Director behind Beast Academy Science. She holds both a B.A. in Physics Education and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT. She worked as a mechanical design engineer before making the switch to education. As a teacher, she developed curricula for thirteen different STEM courses and launched multiple flagship programs, including an engineering academy and a Physics First initiative. 

She joined the AoPS curriculum team in 2019 as a physics curriculum developer. Amanda is passionate about empowering students to view the world through physics, learn from hands-on experiments, and eventually design cool things themselves!

A program of Art of Problem Solving, AoPS Academy brings the AoPS methodology to local campuses through small, interactive classrooms. Through 10 in-person learning centers and a virtual campus, AoPS Academy offers math and language arts courses for motivated students grades 2-12.
