Ken Kuwako, Your Science Trainer. Every Day is an Experiment. Today, I’m thrilled to share an absolute gem of a digital tool that will dramatically spice up your earthquake lessons. A colleague told me about this resource, created by Dr. Kiwamu Nishida from the Earthquake Research Institute at the University of Tokyo, and honestly, I […]

I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment. Look at those precise, beautiful curves appearing on the blackboard—curves too perfect to be drawn with chalk. Doesn’t it look like magic? This is actually a simple trick using a projector, a technique called “Inverted Black and White Projection.” Today, I’ll explain how this […]

I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment! Have you ever been on a spinning ride at an amusement park, like the teacups, or a roundabout at a playground, and felt that weird sensation of being pulled strongly outwards? What exactly is the identity of that force that makes you want to […]

Hi, I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment! Have you ever heard of the “Magic Bag”? It’s a mysterious bag that spontaneously inflates when you place it in hot water—without you doing anything else! The truth is, this isn’t magic at all; it’s a display of pure science. The secret, the […]
