The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

An indicator reveals if a substance is acidic or basic. In solutions, acidic components release hydrogen ions, while basic ones release hydroxide (OH?) ions. The indicator changes color according to the solution’s nature. Materials Needed. • Red cabbage • Knife (Use only under adult supervision; preferably let the adult do the chopping) • Blender • Strainer • Bowl • Clear cups or glasses • Household liquids to test • Dropper.

What Is an OPM Provider? An Online Program Management (OPM) provider helps higher ed organizations take their academic programs online. These OPM providers operate primarily in the United States and Europe due to the sheer amount of renowned institutions that they house. OPMs often handle most of the program development and delivery much more quickly than universities typically can themselves.

What do humans and snowflakes have in common? Just like every person has a unique fingerprint, every snowflake has a different geometry and shape. When an extremely cold droplet of water freezes over a speck of dust or pollen in the sky, it forms an ice crystal, which serves as a base for the rest of the snowflake to grow upon. As the crystal falls towards the ground, water vapor in the atmosphere freezes onto it.

Credit: Ken Billington. A big myth about dogs is that their personality has a lot to do with their breed. In reality, all dogs can be good dogs, and we have the science to back that up! Scientists turned to dog-owners to answer questions about their pup’s behaviour. The questions ranged from whether their dogs were friendly to strangers to little things like whether they saw their dogs circle before pooping.!
