Centripetal Motion

 Demonstrating that a ball does indeed travel in a straight line when released from the centripetal force The ball travels around the loop until the loop is lifted then it carries on in a straight line. The loop was made from a hoop with insulating foam around it.

Milk decay Experiment

 The milk decay experiment. Most of the students I talked to had no idea what this experiment showed - many had not done it because of a lack of time or resources. It is such an easy experiment to do and get good results.

Exam Diary

 Some of the Students are prepared and ready for this. A few are thinking about starting to revise soon, but most are in between desperately trying to learn all sorts of things and identifying new patterns.

LAMP

 Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP are the essentials for easily making a fully functional web server. This can be created on a Raspberry Pi system in a few minutes and then connected to the internet, and it just works - serving up web pages to the world 

Kipps Aparatus

 One of the most iconic pieces of Chemistry equipment is the Kipps Apparatus. The students are fascinated by how it produces gas at any time it is needed and how, just by turning a tap, the reaction can be stopped and started again.

Momentum

 Investigating Momentum using two @pascoscientific smart carts and a couple of other carts of the same mass. The figures in Capstone clearly showed the relationship in seconds. With the magnetic bumpers on one side and velcro on the other, the idea of elastic collisions and non-elastic collisions was successfully demonstrated.

Templates

When teaching maths, making drawings look right helps the learning process. Using templates makes good-looking images happen fast, and using a visualiser or a tablet and the templates, put these up on the screen so the students know exactly what is happening.
