Colleague of mine will be using this in his teaching today - said it’s one of his all-time top 5 science videos on YouTube, which is quite the compliment: alomshaha.com/portfolio/ju...
Just a Theory?
I wrote and produced this animation at the Royal Institution to tackle the common misconception that a scientific theory is simply a guess.

Survey via @educationweek shows K-12 educators think students are less independent than a decade ago. I don't know of survey data in higher ed, but every professor I've talked to has the same perception of college students, esp post-pandemic.

Too many conflate the definition of resistance and Ohms law.
Nice to see this.

I've switched to paper booklets from devices running one note with my year 10s.
Much more engagement and progress.

Introduced @carousel-learning.bsky.social to my year 9 class for their second homework. "have you logged in and started the quiz?"
"Yeah it's easy, we had it at my old school"
"What do you think of it?"
"It's good, yeah, helpful"

Is there anyone out there who can point me in the direction of some stretch and challenge work for my year 8 class who are bossing their photosynthesis topic already? Asking for a physics teacher who’s highest biology qual iss a combined science GCSE from 1993 (me).
