Sci Show

Topics: General Science
Explanation Quality: Best
Medium: Video
Type of Content: News, Teaching
 
SciShow is a youtube channel run by Hank Green. It posts several different types of videos. There is a weekly video with science news. There are shorter videos on a variety of interesting topics - my favorite is on Non-Newtonian fluids. These offer a quick overview of something.


There are also longer videos which offer more information. My favorite one of those is on epigenetics. Basically, this channel is a good place to learn a bit about a random topic. If you have something specific you want to know about in mind this might not be the right place, but if you just want to keep updated on what's happening in the world, or don't care what you learn about, then this is the place for you. This is not to say that SciShow won't help you if you are trying to learn about a specific topic. I was able to use one of their videos in a presentation on radiation.

The videos are always easily understandable, and normally humorous as well. So go check it out!
