Real world Maths

 

#Maths is more than equations. It's about solving real-world problems. From integration to logs & indices, where do you see these concepts come to life in your everyday routine? #RealWorldMaths

What is temperature?

Online A-level Physics What is temperature? Heat moves from a hotter body to a colder body, and in doing so, we can see this energy movement powering the fan.

 

Dihybrid cross

Learning about dihybrid crosses resulted from doing lots of crosses with Drosophila over many weeks. Now the students seem to occasionally see this, only in a textbook and wonder what it is all about. Students don't see a Punnett square as explaining reality.

 

Networking

Learning about how networks work. This then involves building a server and a couple of workstations and getting them to connect to one another. Raspberry Pi's work well for this. We build wired and wireless networks.

 

Boxes of Equipment

 All ready for the day ahead. Boxes of equipment are prepared to enable all the practical work.

Optically Active

A simple but amazing property of some substances like Glucose to rotate polarised light. This is Dextrose  and Laevose rotates the same amount but in the opposite direction

 

Rates of Concentration

A-level Chemistry working with rates of reactions, using the @Pascoscientific colourimeter to capture the responses of different concentrations of sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid reacting so they can draw accurate rate graphs in Capstone
