"With learning, there’s a lot that changes but there’s an awful lot that stays the same. I think schools in 10 years’ time will still have lots of kids in them & great teachers in them & amazing textbooks & probably paper-based exams.”

Covering a Physics lesson this morning, great to see some #art #science #visualisation @SPFPhysics marvelling at the wonders of the visible universe! Why no physics happening between 10-34 and 10-18? Great poster by @sixtysymbols

Many will have enjoyed watching Philippe Coutinho bend in that spectacular goal for Brazil yesterday at the #worldcup. We discuss how footballs curl so spectacularly and other physics-related football trivia in our weekly podcast ow.ly/saux50hJXNQ ow.ly/saux50hJXNQ

A very special service today to celebrate the extraordinary life of Professor Stephen Hawking. “Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet.” SH xitter.cf/wabbey/status/10076070…
.@astro_timpeake reads from Queen Mab by Percy Bysshe Shelley:
‘Earth’s distant orb appeared
The smallest light that twinkles in the heaven;
Whilst round the chariot’s way
Innumerable systems rolled,
And countless spheres diffused
An ever-varying glory...’
