Making sense of Circuits

 The teacher draws a circuit diagram with strange symbols and straight lines, and then the students are given the components without symbols and wires that go all over the place. That is why we start off the easy way with Locktronics.

Histology

 Learning to use a microscope is just the beginning. We regularly use microscopes in our lessons with prepared slides, helping students relate structure to function and keep their skills fresh.

E-Commerce

 With Black Friday here, we explore the rise of e-commerce in A-Level Business Studies. We discuss its benefits—like access to a global market—along with the downsides, including those left behind by technology and the risks of tech failures. #ALevelBusiness #Ecommerce #BlackFriday

Hard Disk

 We are looking at the insides of hard disks and how they work. We are also trying to understand why so much capacity is lost when a drive is formatted and what it is used for to get the disk to work.

Chemistry in Context Calculating Yields

 Calculating yields is not particularly exciting in Chemistry -it's just Math. However, doing quantitative experiments and working out how much we have made compared to how much we could have made makes the whole thing more interesting.

Shaking beads in a box

 Shaking beads in a box with a @pascoscientific wireless temperature sensor to record the temperature change to show how motion can be turned into thermal energy.

Matricies

 Learning what problems you can solve with matrices at GCSE and A-Level is key. Some problems become surprisingly easy when framed as a matrix! #GCSEMaths #ALevelMaths #Matrices
