Do air convection currents really move as they are drawn in textbook illustrations? Let’s make invisible convection currents visible using mist.
Not just for remote teaching: virtual labs really came into their own during the COVID-19 pandemic, but they can generally be a useful addition to the STEM teacher’s toolbox.
Explore phase transitions between different states of matter through a series of engaging hands-on experiments.
Ever wondered what the weather is like on planets outside our solar system? Scientists have recently discovered an exoplanet where it rains iron!
When we cool something below its freezing point, it solidifies – at least, that’s what we expect. Tobias Schülli investigates why this is not always the case.
