Practical 3 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical we are looking at the famous cup attributed to Pythagoras. Working with a siphon, it “punished” anyone who became too greedy. Students will be able to produce their own “Greedy cups” as they are otherwise known, using some simple materials, most of which you may already have in your staff kitchen cupboard. More about the History in STEM practical Series This series is designed to bring quality cross-curricula material to STEM subjects, that help students to explore and discover phenomena normally taught, while getting a glimpse into the history of its development. In addition, a number of the practicals give the students the opportunity to play “Mythbusters”, looking at a number of different methods and having to reason why one or the other was the more likely or useful method. From Ancient Greece to Vikings, China to the Golden age of the Muslim empire and beyond to India, the series takes a look at some of the most important STEM achievements throughout history. There is a plan for 40 of these such practicals in this series, so, if you liked this one, consider looking at some of the others, or check out some of the bundles available.

Practical 26 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical the students will be able to build their own telescopes using equipment available available for less than 5 dollars. They will be even able to make their own lenses, upcycling plastic bottles. This package includes an experiment printout with an introduction including a history of astronomy pre and post invention of the telescope. The practical can be done in a 60-90 minute lesson or split up over multiple lessons if needed. If you want, they could even take the telescope home for further investigation/homework tasks to extend the use of the project.

Practical 21 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical, “The Slow Roll” takes a look at two classic experiments completed by Galileo in order to “prove” that a falling object does in fact accelerate when it falls. The most difficult object to get will be a ramp long enough for the test, however, I have used cardboard shipping tubes (for posters and the like) in the past to great success. This practical is also great because it gives the students another way to measure time, getting them to think outside the box of what can be used to take measurements and even to get accurate results. This is a practical they will be sure to remember.

Practical 16 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical set focuses, first and foremost on replicating Gallileo’s famous free-fall experiment. Students use modern technology to record with slow motion video and calculate an object in free-fall’s velocity, momentum and acceleration. There is also a proof of concept to show that surface area, not mass, is a major factor in determining acceleration. Finally, using YouTube, they look at momentum in moving vehicles, using technology to analyse video frame by frame to get an estimate of a cars velocity, momentum and accelaration. As always, it includes an introduction covering the history of the theory across multiple continents and over a period of over 2000 years.

Practical 17 in the History in STEM practical series. This is part 1 of a 2 part series of practicals covering the history and development of the camera. This practical starts looking at the camera obscura and gives a variety of uses for the phenomona, including as an eclipse viewer and as a full room camera obscura. As always, there is an intro looking at the history of the camera obscura, including its use across the world and a quick look at its discovery. The practical could be completed in as little as 45 minutes, but is probably best suited for 90 minutes, to give students time to explore.
