I have finally updated Useful Bits and Pieces for Evidence Informed Teaching with a couple of terms' worth of backlog. There's around 100 new links in there - hopefully should prove helpful! achemicalorthodoxy.wordpress.com/2017/01/29/use…

Science teachers, read to your students, they love a good story! We're collating interesting curriculum-linked passages that we come across when reading pop-sci books. Check out the current repository here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

There was some interest in my last google docs link. I offered this to IOP Publishing too, I think they will be of interest to schools doing KS5. Decade boxes are expensive to buy these work out about £12 each. docs.google.com/document/d/1Vh…

This has been published today by Office for National Statistics (ONS) showing *some* occupations with a statistically higher (or lower) probability of testing positive for Covid. See the matrix (Fig 2) for details and see Fig 1 for a ranking of occupational risk of testing positive. ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulati…

NEW SPREADSHEET! That was virtual - this is LABS/practicals. It's my GIFT to you - Good Ideas For Teaching physics. Sheet 1 - Toys, tricks, making Sheet 2 - 'Standard' pracs/labs Do your own risk assessments! What to say/learn/how to make it. Enjoy! bit.ly/2UAdpoL

Hey #iteachphysics, I need some suggestions. What would you do if you had access to a table-top scanning electron microscope in your classroom for 2-3 days?

The directly proportional/proportional misconception is still very pervasive. I would really appreciate some retweets of this post to help awareness. If ever in doubt about such things, this document by The ASE is great:ase.org.uk/download/file/…

JOB OPPORTUNITY We're recruiting a Senior Science Technician (£26,446 - £30,984 Per Annum Pro Rata) to join our team working alongside two other technicians and twelve teachers. Retweets appreciated. Link: wmjobs.co.uk/job/140530/sen…

Here is a random walk simulator of photon path within a star. Amazing! 🙂applets.kcvs.ca/RandomWalk/ran…

Such a useful resource for everyone who teaches physics:

Article on the history of superconductivity history.aip.org/exhibits/mod/s…

Acids turn red… wait, bases might too? With pH in tight ranges, mind the indicator and hue.

If you do AQA GCSE Science then this looks fantastic. Well done Katie! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Chanced upon this new series on C4. Absolutely brilliant! So many curriculum links, including one of the best explanations of elec generation I’ve seen. And ep 3 goes into superb detail of the future of fusion. Highly recommend! channel4.com/programmes/guy…

Stumbled upon this excellent free online Physics book. Would be great for new teachers and also to recommend to the most able at A-Level courses.lumenlearning.com/suny-physics/

Hello twitter folk. Could someone please tell me what this type of alpha source is called? I'm stumped. Maybe reshare to help me out?

Physics teachers. These are two websites I recommend you join, if you haven't done so up to now 🙂Please repost to spread the word 🙂

Always nice to remember, every so often, that this exists. youtu.be/s8oqKyVW978?fe…

The start of a new year!! If you're teaching physics I have two lists for you!
