Learning all about Matrices—they seem complete at first, but it takes a bit of practice on the calculators to get them to work correctly. By hand, the Matrices take a long time, but the calculators do them in a flash.

The teacher draws a circuit diagram with strange symbols and straight lines, and then the students are given the components without symbols and wires that go all over the place. That is why we start off the easy way with Locktronics.

Learning to use a microscope is just the beginning. We regularly use microscopes in our lessons with prepared slides, helping students relate structure to function and keep their skills fresh.

We are looking at the insides of hard disks and how they work. We are also trying to understand why so much capacity is lost when a drive is formatted and what it is used for to get the disk to work.

Calculating yields is not particularly exciting in Chemistry -it's just Math. However, doing quantitative experiments and working out how much we have made compared to how much we could have made makes the whole thing more interesting.

Measuring the centre of Mass in a variety of objects a part of A-level Physics. More difficult examples create some problems when the centre of mass is not on the object, and other weird objects which change their centre of mass as they move.

She sits in the corner of a small lift that has broken down. She feels the walls pressing in on her. She has a phobia of confined spaces. Is this anxiety normal, and is it natural to feel this way -  We explore in A Level Psychology.

You can't see it, taste it, or smell it, but with the @pascoscientific Wireless Geiger counter, you can hear the radiation and see the results plotted on a graph. The students were really surprised about the amount of background radiation.

Studying circulation becomes a bit more interesting when an ultrasound machine is used to scan for a vein so a cannula can be inserted into an arm. We also learned why needles are put into veins rather than arteries.

The students are examining a fibre optic model to determine how total internal reflection works, how a signal can be sent down, and why monochromatic light is needed when messages are sent down the fibre.

Why are Moles so hard to understand? I find that both A-Level and GCSE students have often failed to understand that although the mass and volumes are different, the substances have the same number of atoms.
