Possible Wormhole detection method

Another article posted to Mastodon, this time on the detection of wormholes. I think the idea they could be masquerading as black holes actually makes some sense. I seem to remember one theory that a worm hole was two black holes connected together.

 Scientists in Bulgaria may have figured out how to detect wormholes

Turns out they might be masquerading as black holes 

A team of researchers at the University of Sofia in Bulgaria may have figured out a novel method for detecting wormholes — assuming, of course, they exist at all.

I have also included a link to science forums to start a conversation on there too.

There isn't any maths in the article, which is just as well as some of the maths for this stuff looks mindbogglingly complicated.

Training update 3

I am slowly working through a SEND diploma course with New Skills Academy. As it is currently Anti Bullying week, I am undertaking a series of courses through the Anti Bullying Alliance

As of today 15/11/2022 I have completed :-

Course 1 : What is Bullying Course 2 : Bullying and the Law Course 3: The 10 key principles

There are about 10+ short courses in total, so will work through at least one per day, or at least aim to do this.

All this training is really proving beneficial, and is leading to me finding lots of really useful resources, so hopefully I can use these in schools.

More CPD Courses

On Monday 21st, I am due to start a course with Aspire Education Academy, which covers the following qualifications:-

  • Level 2 Understanding Behaviour that Challenges
  • Level 2 Understanding Safeguarding and Prevent
  • Level 2 Understanding Mental Health First Aid and Mental Health Advocacy in the Workplace

This is designed to help people back in to work / employment.

However i am currently employed as a supply teaching assistant (just not working enough hours). I am therefore more than happy to undertake temporary supply work, which is actually a really good way to gain experience in different schools, share ideas, share expertise and build a wide range of skills.

So just a few of the recently completed courses.

  • Level 2 Teaching Assistant Diploma, 18/10/2022

So basically a fully quaffed TA.

Scratch how_to videos

I have been working on some short how to videos for Scratch. These are designed to cover specific tasks, such as sprite effects, choosing background etc.

The idea is to use at Code Club and perhaps in schools to help people new to Scratch / coding get started.

I have uploaded to the decentralised peertube instance diode.zone. You can follow on any ActivityPub enabled service by following @[email protected]

I am not sharing these directly with the Fediverse post publication. This would just flood with videos ( given the frequency I am making & uploading ) and therefore would not look good.

You are free to share further, if you do perhaps tag me in either the above user or my Mastodon ID @[email protected]

Feel free to discuss further on the Fediverse.
