@MissGBiology @chatbiology @WALKTHRUs_5 Beginning essay skills practice Thursday. Not done it for years so this thread was really helpful. Thanks

A nice animation showing the 3D nature of the vesicles fusing to membrane

@MissB286 I worked in education in science museums and zoo before. I'd probably return to that or work for a uni or other large organisation engaging public with science

@hrogerson A backpack and one of these. Different compartment for each class for worksheets etc. Done it for years. Works a treat.

Great thread about dodgy graphs

[Martin Bauer @martinmbauer]

A thread with some basic red flags in data graphs.

As physicists we stare at data a lot and it is surprising how frequent data representation in media (and even in science) distorts the message.

In extreme cases you end up with ridiculous plots like this:

@Suchmo83 This is me. If I find it boring I explore the topic, seek out the stories and inevitably make it at least vaguely interesting for myself and then hopefully others.

@VPTeachSci @chatbiology @cogscisci Only managed a quick look so far but it looks great. Thank you so much for sharing. Am certain I'll make use of some of the GCSE required practical stuff. Thanks again

[Ali @Snooks123451]

@ShariConditt Yes. I want them to feel liked by me. I don't mind if they don't like me but I want them to know I like them and care about them

@BethanyBotanica Oak tree - super big, old, beautiful and impressive.

[Ali @Snooks123451]

@LauraDeamer @maternityCPD 3 weeks with my first. 1 week with both my others although third was in lockdown and I was WFH by then

[Ali @Snooks123451]

Love this

[Ruth Swailes @SwailesRuth]

If we all do this in 2022 the world will be a much better place.

[Ali @Snooks123451]

@QEPrize @alomshaha @BrunelMuseum @londonplay My boys would love this. Can't wait to see your other ideas. Will definitely be making one or two. What a lovely thing to do. Thank you @alomshaha

[Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering @QEPrize]

Today is the start of #AMonthOfMaking - 4 weeks of videos demonstrating how to make sustainable Christmas gifts! Take a look at the first one by @alomshaha and learn how to make a game called Sinkeroo.

Supported by @BrunelMuseum, @londonplay and a group of fantastic STEM makers.

@mrsjmasters Did this today having seen it on here. Nice introduction to the topic. Thanks for the idea!

[Jane Masters @mrsjmasters]

Marvellous news! And fits in beautifully with the AQA Disease topic at GCSE - “Viruses living in cells can be the trigger for cancers”

HPV vaccine cutting cervical cancer by nearly 90% https://t.co/jsimRyp3qG

Lots of great issues to discuss in here around drug trials and interpreting data https://t.co/3yqA8Epfum

[Ali @Snooks123451]

@MissLMTeach @maternityCPD Worked 3 weeks before my first was due and a week before my second (second was 14 days overdue so still had a decent break) worked up til due date on last but due to covid I was WFH.

[Ali @Snooks123451]

@adamboxer1 Thank you. I'm sure these will be really useful for me this year
