Electrolysis Required Practical



Electrolysis Required Practical: When discussing electrolysis with a student who had not previously performed the experiment, observed a demonstration or watched a video on the topic, I instructed them to set up and conduct the practical on their own.

Mendel and Genetics


 I find this one of the hardest topics to teach because of the lack of practical work. Sure we can do some genetics at GCSE but it takes so much time and theory is so much better when based on some practical work. #ScienceEducation

Integrating parametric Functions


Teaching students how to integrate parametric functions using Desmos and Casio CG50 to display graphs and help them visualize. #MathEducation #ParametricFunctions #Desmos #CasioCG50
A parametric function is a mathematical function where the variables x and y are expressed as separate functions of a third variable, usually denoted as t. In other words, a parametric function describes the relationship between two variables in terms of a third variable. The parameter t is often interpreted as time, and the values of x and y at a given t represent the coordinates of a point on a curve or surface. Parametric functions are commonly used to describe motion and change over time in physics, engineering, and other fields.

Simple refraction in a glass



 Watch an arrow bend in a glass with and without water! It's amazing to see the look of disbelief when students realize it's not magic, just refraction. Optics can be both fun and fascinating!

Teaching Maths online


 Maths teaching is a breeze online, unlike Science. Using Zoom we can handle large numbers of students and explain how to solve Mathematical problems, creating a Plan for solving each problem faced.
