Understanding Protein Synthesis

 Getting to grips with protein synthesis in A-level Biology, from looking at the DNA structure to transcription to RNA and then translating the RNA sequence to a Protein in a Ribosome and seeing how the protein molecule folds to create an active protein.

Sociology Dependency Theory

In A-level sociology, we investigate how dependency theory explains development in different parts of the world and how the forces of a global capitalist society operate against and press the poorer countries that have yet to develop.

Computing projects nearly done

 This year's A-Level Computing projects are nearly complete! Building and getting them to work is just half the battle—documenting the process, including testing, meetings, and improvements, is where the real challenge lies. #ALevelComputing #ProjectWork

Ordering the reactivity of metals

Exploring the relative reactivity of metals with acid: Magnesium reacted vigorously, while copper showed no reaction. Differentiating zinc and iron was trickier but became clearer with cleaned surfaces. Reactivity order: Mg > Zn > Fe > Cu. #Chemistry #ScienceExperiment
 

Simple Pendulum

 Using @pascoscientific rotation sensor and Capstone to analyse a pendulum's motion: Comparing position, velocity, and acceleration to uncover patterns and relationships between them. A hands-on way to bring physics concepts to life! #Physics #STEMEducation

Geometry on the calculator

 Exploring geometry on the CG-50 calculator: Adding shapes to the screen can reveal amazing insights and uncover details that might not have been obvious before. A great tool for visualising concepts! #Maths #Geometry #TechInEducation

Seeing radioactivity

Visualising radioactivity in a cloud chamber: As particles leave the Thorium rod, they create stunning vapour trails in the isopropyl alcohol. A captivating way for students to see where radioactive particles are emitted! #ScienceEducation #Physics
