Pasco Capstone Course Day 1

 Recreating the exercises from

@pascoscientific

capstone course yesterday. Amazing how many little bits I leant. Looking forward to the next session. All about #Physics #iteachphysics #STEM

Optics

 A level #Physics Needing to do a little revision of #GCSE #science before going onto more advanced stuff. The candle seems to be so more effective than other light sources for understanding. #iteachphysics #STEM

Plastic Strip Tester

 #GCSE #Physics Using a plastic strip Tester on different plastic and paper bags experiment to find the breaking points of the different bags by different manufacturers. Students are surprised at the results. #STEM #iteatchphysics #Science

Resolution of Forces

 A Level #Physics Resolution of Forces using a magnetic whiteboard a few magnets and some string. Easy to move around - change the length and to set and resolve new problems. #iteachphysics #STEM #science

Ball drop

 #Physics Playing with the strobe and a @pascoscientific metal metre rule to work out the acceleration due to gravity. The Strobe was at 15Hz and by looking at the ruler we can work out the acceleration. #iteachphysics #science #STEM

Two Nodding birds

 Two Nodding birds. Identical Mass , Liquid etc. But they have very different periods. Why? Something to get my A level #Physics Students thinking about (they can play with them as well) #iteachphysics #science #stem A bit of fun to get them interested.

3-D printing

 Holidays are about catching up on 3-D printing #Physics equipment for the @pascoscientific sensors to do more/better/clearer experiments and designing some new bits of my own. #iteachphysics #science #stem
