Gravitational Anomaly

 GCSE Physics: Some of my students have been investigating a gravitational anomaly around the @pascoscientific light gate and picket fence, trying to determine why there is such an anomaly here. Student error seemed to be the case with practice getting 9.8m/s/s

UAT

 

For some students, it's time to look at the Test of Mathematics for University Admission. It's a shock when they realise how good their Maths needs to be and what they should be doing instead of where they are.

Slinky drop

A-Level Physics in the Holidays: In the simple slinky drop, does the slinky fall and collapse as it hits the ground, or does it compress first and then fall? The students used slow motion on their phones to capture the facts, and then they had to explain their observations.

 

Fossil fish under the Microscope

GCSE Biology: We are looking at a Fossil Fish under a low-power microscope to examine as many features as possible. Why have most of the features stayed the same over the past millions of years? Have they evolved so much that they are perfectly adapted to their situation?
 

Brain Areas

 Getting a Head Start on A-Level Psychology: Dive into the brain's structure, discover what each part does, and explore how they shape our behaviours. Beyond the physical, let's ponder the wonders of imagination and what makes us truly unique.  #Psychology #BrainScience #Imagination #Alevels

WiFi

A-Level Computer Science in the Holidays. Learning to set up a WiFi system to obtain the best and clearest signal. Investigating the security of the signals and what can be done to make WiFi more secure.

Vanadium

GCSE Chemistry in the Holidays: Investigating the different ionic states and colours of Vanadium, from the yellow of Vanadium V to the Blue of Vanadium IV, the Green of Vanadium III to the violet of Vanadium II and then taking the vanadium back using Potassium Permanganate
