A power is also known as an index number, or indices for plural. They tell us how often a number or letter has been multiplied by itself. In this video we are going to look at index notation, so that we are ready to cover the laws of indices in future videos. Our teachers and animators come toget
Misty Copeland has been an inspiration in the ballet world, encouraging ballerinas to pursue their dance dreams regardless of their body types, race and ethnicities. This video briefly explains the subject of diversity in ballet and how Misty Copeland has helped re-shape the dance world. Author: Re
In this video we will learn how Alfred Wegener proposed a theory in 1912 that the great continents of the Earth had drifted over geological time and were once all joined together in a giant land mass we now call Pangaea. His idea was based on the way present day continents fit neatly together, and
Not every triangle is a right-angle triangle, so we can't always use Pythagoras and SOHCAHTOA to find missing sides and missing angles. We instead use the sine rule or the cosine rule. They can both be used to find either missing sides or missing angles in any triangle (right angle or not). Click h
In this video we look at the basics of algebra, focusing on the notation that is used. In algebra we use symbols to represent numbers. These symbols are called variables. Some reasons for using symbols instead of numbers is that the symbols, or variables, can represent unknown quantities and for s
In this video we discover what the difference of two squares means and how to factorise these ‘special’ quadratics. Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/FuseSchool VISIT us at www.fuseschool.org, where all of our videos are carefully organised into topics and specific orders, and to s
In this video we are will look at mitosis, including the names of the key stages: interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis. Mitosis is the process of cell division that produces identical copies of cells, and is involved in growth, cell repair and asexual reproduction.
Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer, navigator, and colonist who completed four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean under the auspices of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain. This simpleshow explains the basic facts about his expedition and how he influenced the history as well as our culture tod
Learn the basics about the green chemistry principle that concerns energy efficiency, as a part of environmental chemistry. This video is part of 'Chemistry for All' - a Chemistry Education project by our Charity Fuse Foundation - the organisation behind The Fuse School. These videos can be used in
When a plant or animal species that once lived stops existing entirely, we say that that species has become extinct. Why do certain species of plants and animals sometimes become extinct? According to the theory of evolution, individuals of the same species show a range of variations. Some individ

In this video we are going to look at rearranging straight line equations to find the gradient and y-intercept. Straight lines follow the equation y=mx+c, where the m is the gradient and the c is the y-intercept. But straight line equations aren’t always written out in this nice form. Sometimes we h
