Anyone else feel robbed that they only discovered how fascinating the sciences can be AFTER the graduated high school?

[Trinitrotoluo]

I find physics very fascinating and i like watching these lectures but what i dont get is why i hated physics in my school.

good vid, keep em coming!

It's because of a great high school algebra prof that I became a science student and I have no regrets!! Instructors have a huge influence on their students' grades and future field of study; I wish more of them would take their jobs seriously enough to inspire the youth of this world.

talking about freon effecting o3 is chemistry....why is he teaching chemistry in PHYSICS. Same reason why he has a camera in his class. The corupt government is forcing the lecturers to teach what they want.....PROPAGANDER. The ozone is fine.....but he is being watched to see if he is feeding this bull to the very absorbant minds of the students.

Dont belive the hype

I bet that after taking this course, most of those students wanted to change into a science/physics major. i would after learning all this fascinating knowledge if i dint know some of this things already.

@Trinitrotoluo

This professor has an amazing knack for explaining physics with real-world concepts. Watch other lectures on youtube, most profs will just toss out a bunch of abstract formulas and leave it to you to make sense of it or to just learn the formulas until you can parrot them. Huge difference, too bad there are few teachers like him.

Dang. I wanted to take Thursday off.

@Trinitrotoluo The because of the way it was thought to you.

[FateMaster2]

@Trinitrotoluo because you have students who are mor interessted in polishing there nails or showing how cool they are and teachers who couldn't get into a research facility so they got stucked with teaching. So basicly they bore the f out of each other.

@Trinitrotoluo they teach everybody how to fail. that's why.
