With a @pascoscientific Force Sensor at the top of a spring and an Ultrasonic Motion sensor at the bottom, the phase relationship between force, distance, velocity and acceleration can be examined and taught online within minutes.
Making slides, staining, and searching for mitosis stages is tricky at this magnification. But we found one of the best slides to observe the different stages of mitosis! #biology #microscopy
Just how useful is the Geometry App in the CG50? It seems to be quite good for GCSE Maths but I am not really sure it is worth the effort for A-Level Maths. Sure it can do some clever things, but the interface is hard to use so no marks here.
One of my favourites - identifying the unknown chemical. First flame tests, then chemical tests to determine the unknown. The Silver Nitrate test came out particularly well. I sometimes can't tell the Bromide from the Iodide, but in this case, I could.
Input / Output devices - easy in A-level computer science until questions like this come along, then, it gets more fun. What specialized input and output devices are used in fields such as medicine and engineering? In medicine, specialized input devices include electrocardiogram (ECG) machines an...

Using a @pascoscientific spectroscope to look at the discharge of Helium. After using a hand held spectroscope, I now know what the students are looking at. #ScienceTeacher #Spectroscopy #STEMEducation
#FunFact: You can determine the velocity of a wave in 2 ways! Use your phone's SloMo to measure distance and time OR use the wavelength and frequency relationship. Bonus: compare circular and straight wave speeds! #Physics #WaveVelocity
To determine the velocity of a wave, you can use the slow-...
Blood types matter! 🔬🩸 Students use the Carolina Pack to determine their blood type - A, B, AB, or O - and whether they're Rhesus positive. It's all about antigen tests with fake blood. #science #education #biology
Why do math examples for students leave out crucial steps? It's helpful to show how to solve problems when students get stuck, but omitting important stages leaves them still stuck. #matheducation #learningmath #teachingmath
- Violet MI have been studying with Philip since Year 4 and have just accepted an offer to study Paramedicine at University. I had a difficult relationship with maths when I started with Philip as I had a bad experience with my school teachers and I can lose focus easily. Philip made the lessons so much fun and understood what kept my interest so that it didn't feel like a chore! He has seen me through my triple science and maths GCSEs and now my Applied Science BTEC. I also have interests now in science that I never would have had previously - and he has given me so much confidence! Never thought I would miss lessons - but I will miss his!
- Scott BJust got my engineering maths results back, scoring extremely well thanks to the tutoring service
