The stress, the pressure, the extreme studying. Sometimes you just need a break, man. So here are some cool youtube links for you. These will give you a short guilt free break from study as you can be entertained but also absorb or review some Science in the process. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>A while ago, a link was posted on the blog to the cool minute physics youtube channel. I am mentioning it again in case anyone has forgotten. The content is updated regularly and is worth a look. Especially in these time pressurised pre exam times, a little minute physics snack is a nice break from study. You can get to the minute physics youtube channel by clicking<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/minutephysics?feature=results_main\"> here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Another longer, but no less cool youtube channel if you want to learn about Science is this one <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/scishow?feature=watch\">here<\/a>, called the SciShow. Not just Physics but we&#8217;ll forgive them for that. I first ran across this when one of my students came in raving about water bears, since then I\u2019ve popped on here and watched other tidbits. If minute physics is a snack, then these weighing in at 3 \u2013 5 minutes each we will call a light lunch.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, if you\u2019re looking for something longer, say a 3 course meal of a science video, you could do worse than have a gander <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PL65923FAF5F65C392&amp;feature=plcp\">here<\/a>. I used a clip from one of this BBC Horizon series in the tutorial that we did on waves and interference looking at Young\u2019s double slit experiment and how observation changes experimental results. The wave particle duality and uncertainty. I haven\u2019t had the time to watch all these but I have watched bits and it is a good solid Science series.<\/p>\n<p>Hope you are all studying hard, eating well and scheduling time to rest and relax!<\/p>\n<p>Emily<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exam time is upon us!
