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 t... more

June 12, 2019IOT ChipThe much talked about Internet of Things can be made with a generalist $3 WiFi chip. It has 8 pin and I talk you through the fabled ESP 8266 MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
June 12, 2019The stillness of the SunI know I have an hour coming back on a walk, so I dive into the Sun armed with a definition of convection and we show that inner 2/3 of the Sun has everyday conduction, and is a still as a rock you heat in a fire. We find out more as we follow the energy and science around. MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
June 12, 201980 cent lasers have their dayJust using these lasers I discover their dark secret: Some have a short lifetime. MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
June 12, 2019Multimeter to Learn WithCare is shown to rewire a multimeter so the LCD is directly above the wire it is measuring. The pesky issue of students not switching the damn thing off is solved with a tilt gravity switch that offs the device when placed face down.

In this case making the Rubber Duck dance checks off that an experiment can be plugged in and tests if it is understood that there is an alternating magnetic Field MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
June 12, 2019AQP Electrons have 720 degree symmetry_8It is true you have to rotate an electron twice to get back to the start. It is called S2 symmetry. You can tell I enjoy the maths but I admit the explanation is terrible. The best I can do is that the electron is like a sock or glove that can be pulled inside out. In truth there is no easy way of getting to the mathematics at least that I know off. MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
June 12, 2019Tasmanian Devil_3I found this totally amazing. It seems very solid proof of evolution and also keen reasoning on the relationship between species.

June 10, 2019Tasmanian Devil_2The evolutionary evidence is arranged so we can have an intelligent appreciation of the origin of the Tasmanian Devil. It is particularly well argued and balanced. Could the Megafauna have been hunted before the invention of the spear and the killing stick (hunting non return boomerang)?
