We teach about the complex, wondrous and dynamic world of Science This blog has been established to showcase the teaching innovations and ideas used by Monash University Science Faculty staff. These staff represent Schools of Physics, Mathematical Sciences, Geosciences, Biological Sciences and Chemistry. As a teaching community we represent academic and professional staff.
The ideas expressed by the contributors are the views of the individual rather than Monash University.
We welcome new contributors. If you wish to contribute to this blog please contact rowan.brookes@monash.edu

ReplyDeleteHi Julia
ReplyDeleteWhile this blog uses a Monash supported platform (Blogger) Monash hasn't enabled some of the additional services (e.g. such as turning on the function that enables subscription). This currently only impacts @monash.edu email addresses.
We're working on resolving this at the moment, and will post an update once we have.
In the interim, please drop in for new content. On average, we are posting around once every 2-4 weeks.
Cheers
