Foundations of Science - Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and more
Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Neuroscience and so on - How are they related? It's simple. Build a structure of science that lasts a lifetime.

What is science? Whether you're artsy or sciency, you don't need to master math to be curious about the world around us.
Discover how science connects Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Neuroscience, Psychology, Math, and more in engaging sessions!
Join us for a course that simplifies how we view science. Together, we'll reveal the hidden connections between areas of science that seem to be completely unrelated.
Inspired by Richard Feynman’s wisdom — “If our small minds divide the Universe into parts, remember that nature does not know it!”
This course will help build up a framework of how to see the world and show how science is integrated into almost every part of the world around us. We simplify complex topics and give a useful framework for future learning.
Month 1: How Math creates Physics and how Engineering creates what we use.
Month 2: How Chemistry creates Biology and how life builds how we think.
Month 3 & beyond: The course will diverge into science topics driven by the students.
Expect engaging stories, head scratching questions, and a fresh perspective on what science really is.
By the way, I'm Blaine! I'm an engineer and builder of electronics and mechanical systems. I was a professional aerospace mechanic in the Air Force, former research scientists, and Neuro-engineer. I currently teach a few different classes at Recess, like "Build a Base on Mars: Engineering Simulation" and more.
Our course is ideal for both artistic and scientific minds, sparking curiosity for everyone to see the world like new!

Today we strengthened our foundation of Mathematics and Physics, and discussed what Chemistry is.
In this session, we went into a short survey of some highlights of Chemical principles and even were able to connect how Chemistry is related to Physics!
Each week we add a little...

Today we built on our growing understanding of how Math relates to Physics and how Physics relates to Chemistry.
And today was awesome! We dove into ideas like what are atoms, elements, and molecules. Here's a short recap of things we explored and wondered about:
### Atomic St...

Today in Foundations of Science, we built up from the basics the relationship between Mathematics and Physics, as well as the relationship of Physics to Chemistry.
After reviewing some basics of what those subjects even are, we spent time talking about Chemistry and watched som...

In this week's session of Foundations of Science, we built a framework for how Math relates to Physics and how Physics relates to Chemistry.
Along the way, we zoomed in and out of the Universe with the Universe to Scale website to gain a better understanding of how very small a...
