It’s no secret. We love Minute Physics. They have a way of taking complex ideas and dumbing them down to our level so that we don’t have to go to school to study quantum mechanics to understand some of the most important components that affect our daily lives. This time, they did something they normally… Continue reading Should we teach the wrong things to children because it’s easier to understand?
