Science Education

hey! i'm really interested in science and math, and learning more about the two subjects - BUT, i don't think i've ever actually learned (what i mean by that is that i'm able to remember and use the info later on after a test or whatever) science/math properly, and was wondering what you guys would suggest as resources to learn or how i should go about relearning all this stuff. thanks!!

Hi Can someone please explain how to solve the following code? How can I compare a0,a1 without a value? Thanks,

I used Fe and Zn as electrodes, 40 ml of 0.1 molar ZnSO4 and 40ml of 0.1 molar FeSO4 as electrolytes. As saltbridge I used KCl. I did not change anything during my experiment meaning that I did not switch the electrolytes after trials. I can't explain why voltage increased, does anyone have an idea why this could have been the case?

High, I know about Open University, Which other University to study MSC Physics online Thanks

Any tips on what to do to boost general scientific and mathematic knowledge as I'm trying to work towards somesort of astro physics as it is my passion

We're all familiar with how certain concepts in science are difficult to grasp, or perhaps to remember. Mottos are these pieces of wisdom that try to capture an idea and make it easier to grasp yourself, or to get across to others through an intuitive verbal formulation. Some of them can be quite unfortunate. They shall not be mentioned here, if possible. So my suggestion is: Let's all share those brief phrasings that have helped us remember an idea, understand it better, keep it closer to our hearts and brains. They can be our own creation or found elsewhere and treasured ever since. One example could be (these are my own): "Velocity is the par…

I'm about to become an RSO here in the UK. I dropped out midway through university and want to go back to study Biochemistry/Biomedicine. The plan is to work my ass off, get my degree, and then get my master's after that. Will I struggle to find work if I am an RSO? Do you find that scientific jobs do background checks? I really want to pursue a career in science and I hate myself for possibly messing it up. My conviction means my charge is never spent. Thanks

Whilst sourcing some components I came across this excellent downloadable pdf on constructing electonics circuits. This would be ideal for teachers of physics/electronics/instrumentation to use. https://www.mitchelectronics.co.uk/electronicsConstructionManual.pdf

Hi I made a blog post on creating models using molymods and just wondered if these kits were still widely used in education. I posted a video on peertube and the reply I got suggested people could use Molview.(http://molview.org/) instead. So asking. I have suggested that if people can't get hold of molymod kits (say cost barrier) it is possible to use coloured clay and straws for very basic models. (not ideal but better than nothing) but that is more of a side issue. For me physically building is a good thing, plus there are videos on you tube showing you how to simulate basic reactions and ensuring you maintain equilibrium which is something I don't th…

With the exceptions of occasional crackpots, the selfish, the unkind, and the uncouth; and on rare occasions, the sheer lunatics that come and go, most of the members of this community are giving me an enormously valuable environment to exchange ideas. Teaching has been a great pleasure for me for many years. Now, for the first time, I'm tutoring a boy that suffers from Asperger's syndrome. After a month now, I must say that it's been one of the most gratifying teaching experiences I've had so far. Things are going pretty well, good results keep coming, and everyone involved seems to be happy. We've started with maths. Every time he shouts “now I understand it!” is pr…

I installed a booster pump to my reverse osmosis system. And I realized there are water around the pump. I thought it was leaking, so I checked all the pipe. It was not leaking. And I realize there are a lot of condensation only when the pump is working. There are so much condensation that water starts collecting at the bottom around the pump. Since cold water coming in when pump, condensation is normal, but it really is excessive. So my question is would vibration from the pump enhance condensation? Would fixing the pump with screws help? I need to wipe it daily. That is annoying and I really need to find a solution.

Hi. I am a South African staying in South Africa, I can see that in order to study I science online, only overseas universities are available for online Msc (master of science) degree. my question is “ when I enroll, how do I get the Degree certificate. Thanks

If you study degree online, like honours degree, how do you get certificate after completing?

Hi everyone, I am a TA for an American university and we remotely teach this quarter and maybe the following ones. We try to better understand the challenges of students to learn chemistry in order to improve teaching method and develop a new way of teaching, especially remotely. Can you please fill out this quick survey and share it with your friends? Thank you so much Stay Safe

Hello all, I've been trying to figure this question out for a week now, but can't seem to be reaching a logical answer. I'd very much appreciate if anyone could help me see how this prolem should be solved. Here it goes: Consider the following wild-type amino acid sequence in bacteria: N-Ser-Leu-Ile-Leu-Ser-C A researcher has induced various mutations in the bacteria, and has isolated two species containing a mutant amino acid sequence. Sequence #2: N-Tyr-Leu-Met-Leu-Ser-C Sequence #3: N-Cys-Leu-Ile-Phe-Lys-X-C 1. State the Sense-DNA sequence for each of the above amino-acid sequences. 2. What Amino Acid could be "X" in sequence #3? Sta…

Hello If you're seeing this right now, I need to you take a look of this idea I conceived and give me your thoughts. Thank you.

May I start by saying this is not a college course. In GB now we are expected to carryout about 3 hrs per year CPD training with regards to our jobs, its a government requirement. I see the benefits of it as our vehicles are all fast becoming high voltage electric vehicles which are or can be very dangerous in the wrong hands. I am a qualified auto-electrician by trade and been in the job some 30 years, but not as a specialist as I carryout other areas of work routinely. So I'm doing some research and I have been refreshing my understanding of determining resistances in parallel circuits. I like knowing I can work mathematics out on paper rather than using a ca…

Can a pathology(I dont know if this is the correct term) kill an invading virus? I've been thinking about that amid this corona virus hysteria. My mother has miastenia gravis, a very rare disease, to make it brief, antibodies attack the host and external agents, instead of attacking only external agents, I've been thinking if there is a possibility of surviving the covid 19 thanks to the aggressive behavior of the immune system, killing every symptom or at least most? I am asking because the question appeared yesterday in my head but I found nothing in google about diseases killing other external agents. My mother rarely get a fever or any common flu, even with miastenia …

Hello, Due to Corona virus outbreak, I am required to teach on line by Skype. I wonder if a drawing pad could be useful within screen sharing to use it as a a whiteboard. Can anyone give me clues on this?

Hi. I am a third year BSocSci student majoring in Psychology. Our assignment this semester involves formulated our own psychology research and I am in need of a topic. I'm looking for a topic that is advanced yet manageable. Any ideas?

At the risk if triggering a discussion that may not belong anywhere on SCIENCEFORUMS.NET I’m hoping to understand the anti-science direction taken by so many conservative political groups over the last several decades. At times I feel it’s as if The Enlightenment never happened. My post was triggered by an article today in The Melbourne Age newspaper describing an organised, well financed program to promulgate within primary and secondary schools in Australia the idea climate change/global warming is no more than an alarmist falsehood. The ostensible justification given is children shouldn’t be scared out of their minds by false prophecies. It will be interesting when thi…

Will finish B.S. in molecular biology in May. Have found asking vague questions about where to go/apply to next are pretty unhelpful. I believe that going through indexes of interesting research is the closest I can get to finding a place to advance myself and be happy in. here is an example for UW-Madison, https://discoveryportal.org/default.aspx Would you have any suggestions about approaches/resources similar to this one?

Feel a little silly writing this, but wanted opinions from an outside source Have been considering studying but am unsure whether I'm actually smart enough to follow the topics I'm interested in. In my mid-twenties and never thought I would study. I did well in school until about 10th grade when I had to get a job to support my siblings. After that, school was downhill. I completed grade 12 but my OP wasn't great. I did well on the exams but failed several classes due to unfinished assignments. Grades came second to feeding us and I stopped caring. I've always had an interest in insects and reptiles, they absolutely fascinate me and I would love to study either…
