Congratulations @StRomerosCS on winning the @ioauk Secondary School competition 2022!
Not impressed with the y-axis scale on this @BBCNews graphic:
Please enjoy this short video, documenting our students winning entry in a national science competition, marking the 'International Year of Sound', run by The Institute of Acoustics @ioauk @Sci_CHAT #proudofourstudents youtu.be/vJH72ucvVfc
Today @StRomerosCS welcomed film director Linzy Attenborough @linzyfilms who is filming a documentary for the @ioauk about our winning Soundscape entry. We were also joined by @gianluca_memoli Senior Lecturer in Novel Interfaces at Sussex Uni. Well done Luke, William & Dominic!
A massive well done to our incredible students who were awarded the Institute of Acoustics national science prize. Thank you to Mr Clarke who supported the students and to our MP, @PBottomleyMP, who met us at Westminster Palace to congratulate our students
Congratulations to Y10 students Luke, Dominic and William! Here is the link to their WINNING entry in the Institute of Acoustics Year of Sound Soundscape Competition. ioa.org.uk/news/secondary…

An interesting thread, highlighting that social distancing and sanitising are not enough - ventilation and mask-wearing is so important. Why are masks so effective? Here’s the Maths: youtu.be/Y47t9qLc9I4

Bought a @HotpointUK dishwasher 18th May. Since then, 3 visits from engineers, the latest one today. Guess what - dishwasher not working this evening. Not fit for purpose, not of satisfactory quality. When we phone, manager won’t speak to us. Appalling customer service.
Schools study 'shows teens spread coronavirus like adults' - prompting frantic Tory U-turn - Mirror Online ““Secondary children are most likely to get infected, have silent infection, transmit infection and get sicker.” mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
In their plans to re-open schools, it seems the government are thinking of teachers after all: gov.uk/guidance/steps…
If students aren’t spreaders, why does the government guidance for re-opening schools suggest desks should be arranged forward-facing? bbc.com/news/uk-537180…
Surface cleaning won’t stop airbourne #COVID19 transmission. I’ll have 6 lessons, up to 30 students in each, 180 all forward-(i.e. teacher-) facing, and NO MASKS. Teachers will be in every year-group bubble! Do @BorisJohnson and @GavinWilliamson care about #teachers ?

@imascientist nominative determinism strikes again! "Chattiest School Award: Chatsmore School"
Well done @ChatsmoreCHS on having the chattiest students! @imascientist told us we had more online chats with scientists during lockdown than any other school nationally! (We’re the school that chats more 😂!) Thanks to all the scientists who answered our questions #stem #science
Funny that. Not what YOU said on March 13th! ☠️bit.ly/32l6KQW☠️ @CMO_England & @uksciencechief “made the judgement call that it is too soon to impose severe restrictions at this stage.” “also advised against the suspension of mass gatherings.” #TryingToRewriteHistory

Physics teaching tip for ITTs, NQTs and ECTs. There are 2 circuits you can use to investigate the IV characteristics of bulbs, wires etc. One changes current and is easy to set up, one changes voltage and is more complex, but far better in terms of range 🙂
In 1930 the Indiana Bell building was rotated 90° Over a month, the 22 million-pound structure was moved 15 inch/hr while 600 employees still worked there. There wasn’t interruption to gas, heat, electricity, water, sewage, or the phone service. No one inside felt it move.

Love this idea!
Science teachers. A scale selector for graphs. This might be useful printed A2 and put on the wall in the lab! Saw it on talkphysics. Might prevent those multiple of 3 scales!
