#ITeachChemistry

We are excited to announce the publication of Build a Nucleus HTML5!
Students can explore how protons and neutrons affects the nuclear species, the stability of a nucleus, and its possible decay mechanisms.

Learning is not the product of teaching. Learning is the product of the activity of learners.

Any #Teachers with #ADHD out there?

One of my skills (I like to think ) is reducing an explanation to the absolute simplest form, the most obvious and easiest-to-understand description.

Obviously I can't do this for everything, but for straightforward stuff I’m always looking at or listening to other people's approaches and thinking, “There's an easier way to do that…”

I’m now looking at everything through that ADHD lens, and now I'm wondering if there's an itch in my head, a distraction thing, when I'm looking at an explanation that has unnecessary detail. *I* get derailed by it, and I imagine it serves as confusing noise for a student new to the topic.

Any thoughts?

I am new to #iGCSE #chemistry this year. Where is the best site for me to go to and read up on stuff? I taught #GCSE from 2007-2010, what has changed? #edutooters @edutooters #ITeachChemistry

So I got a rad meme mug as a farewell present today. Seems like my year 11s are still salty about a hard exam I gave them last year. Hopefully the alt text makes sense! #IBchemistry #Iteachchemistry #teacher #mug #meme #photomug #present

My year 12 SL chem class keep telling me, "Miss, you slayy, girlboss."
I don't speak fluent "youth", so I can only assume it is a compliment.

It is week 1 of IA week at school. I have been in the lab with year 12 chemists for 13 and a half hours in 3 days... The lab stays open from 2-5pm so I am doing long days. This year are by far the neediest students we have had in my time at this school. Only a week and a half to go!

Any @edutooters in Bangkok or greater Thailand? I have a chemistry job interview and if it all goes well I guess the family and I are moving there!

My last, and favourite, PD presentation before I retired in 2019. I presented a bunch of my favourite demos, then had a raffle at the end of the session to give all my homemade equipment away. Attendees didn’t know in advance they would be getting presents #edutooter #ITeachPhysics #ITeachChemistry
