Sessions

Short interactive lessons that ask a question before they explain. One session takes about ten minutes and ends with questions to check what you have understood.

SESSION 1 1 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

Why science uses models

A model keeps the few quantities that decide the answer to one question and leaves out the rest, on purpose.

SESSION 2 2 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

The language of science

Words such as work have exact meanings in science, and an equation states how quantities are related.

SESSION 3 3 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

Why units must be standard

A measurement is a number and a unit. One airliner ran out of fuel because pounds were used in place of kilograms.

SESSION 4 4 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

Laws, theories and principles

A law describes a pattern, a theory explains it, and a principle applies across many situations.

SESSION 5 5 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

Prediction and testing

A prediction is an expected result worked out from evidence. A claim is testable when it names something measurable.

SESSION 6 6 How Science Works Class 9 · Science How Science Works Free

The art of estimation

Rough values of each quantity give an answer of the right size, good enough to check a calculation.

SESSION 1 1 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Why we need coordinates

One number fixes a point on a line; a point in a plane needs two, measured along perpendicular axes.

SESSION 2 2 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Reading the plane

The axes, the origin and the ordered pair (x, y). The x-coordinate is the distance from the y-axis.

SESSION 3 3 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Quadrants and signs

Four quadrants, four sign patterns. (3, 5) and (5, 3) are different points, and reflection changes one sign.

SESSION 4 4 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Distance between two points

The coordinate differences are the legs of a right triangle, and the Baudhayana-Pythagoras theorem gives the distance.

SESSION 5 5 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Midpoints and dividing a segment

The midpoint is the average of the coordinates. The same idea finds a missing endpoint and the trisection points.

SESSION 6 6 Coordinates Class 9 · Maths Coordinates Free

Coordinates in the real world

Widths, overlaps of circles and collinearity, all calculated from coordinates on floor plans, grids and screens.
