  • Stop dont solder when you can IDC
    It is not out there, but the old 90's insulation displacement connectors that worked with ribbon wire is the key way to move in a professional direction. I think I will have to make a tool to insert individual wires. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Scientist in an Education Wonderland
    Education has crossed into the new and dangerous territory of psychology, not only stating the information but worrying about the mind of the listener, and their motivation to keep listening. They are dangerous because they take themselves so seriously. This is a key message, but hard to follow... all my fault no doubt.

  • How to solder
    How to solder on a budget. Some tips have come through from experts, other things seem to work well for me. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Disruptive Technology
    I have a quick chat about what it takes for a disruptive technology. I think the technology is not the main story, but it is more about the rule changes and behaviour. That's my thoughts anyhow. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Thoughts on Research Paper
    As I burn in my sensors (I discovered a source of cross talk) I turn to writing an Education paper which compared to a research paper comes across as some dialectic stream of consciousness. Any how I bring Bunsen back from the dead to bring life into this description. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • IOT pH meter
    One step forward linking up a pH meter to this battery powered (1 week charge stored) WiFi utility station. Two or more steps back as I discover why the thermocouples I have are so cheap, and get caught out by my own stupidity crossing over wires twice. And in breaking news my slick soldering iron of the future has decided it wants to have a break in e-waste. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Braille Planetarium
    The idea of turning the entire surface of the earth into a tactile "Tiny Galaxy" at 1 trillion scale is extended. The humble road/sky signs are given an educational upgrade. Sky View lite is noted. A 1 meter sphere sliced through the two tropic latitudes into three is described. The tactile stars are on the inside and in the centre is a earth with Glenbrook on top, which makes sense if you think about it. This is a prototype communication to the Blue Mountains team, I will refine and refine and perhaps find a good communicator to move solidly forward.

  • Under 3 Min Periodic Table
    Bit of a brain fade at tin, but this slipped under the 3 min barrier and was automatically cut out of processing because it was so short. I will have to chase down the source of the annoying cable clicking. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Rock Lesson
    This Science Teachers article really brings up child centered learning. I found the model of teaching has bled over to the model of research. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

You are welcome to listen in as I "explain things scientific". I have had great fun with lasers, robots and absorbing Quantum Physics. Now as a classroom teacher, laid low by heart surgery its time…
