Kinetic Theory of Matter

Looking at the Kinetic Theory of matter using a simple model with beads.

Tension Protractor

 Using a pair of @pascoscientific tension protractors on a zip line to measure how forces change with angle as the zip line gets steeper. Such a handy piece of kit—perfect for the experiment! #Physics #Tension #ZipLine #ScienceInAction

Matricies

 Learning all about Matrices—they seem complete at first, but it takes a bit of practice on the calculators to get them to work correctly. By hand, the Matrices take a long time, but the calculators do them in a flash.

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.
