Professor Dave Explains

Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you.

I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology.

This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just want to know more about the world and how things work. My goal is to increase science literacy in our society, so please share these tutorials with anyone that you think might enjoy them. Happy learning!

    The Eastern Mediterranean Part 3: Second Temple Judaism (500 BCE – 100 CE)

    Continuing with our study of the Israelites, we reach the period known as Second Temple Judaism. This is because the Israelites were permitted to return to Jerusalem from exile in Babylon and reconstruct their temple. This is also the time when the Jewish identity arose. Let's learn more about this period now!

    Introduction to Biology: What is Life?

    After we learn chemistry and biochemistry, we are ready for biology! In this course we extend our understanding of molecules to encompass an entire cell and everything inside it. This is a huge step in complexity, and we will even talk about how the first cells may have come about. First just a little introduction to whet your whistle!

    Introduction to Partial Differential Equations: Classification and Differential Operators

    With ordinary differential equations wrapped up, it's time to move on the partial differential equations. These can be trickier than ODEs, but don't worry, we will learn all kinds of handy techniques for solving them. Let's start out simply by going over the basics regarding classification of PDEs, and introducing differential operators.

    Multiplication and Division of Fractions

    If we know how to add and subtract fractions, we should know how to multiply and divide them too, right? Don't worry, it's actually even easier than adding and subtracting them, because when we multiply two fractions, they don't have to have the same denominator, like when we add them. And dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. It's all in here, take a look!

    Making Fun of John Lennox With Planet Peterson

    There are a few apologists that creationists regularly reference as being undebunkable super mega geniuses. As it turns out they're always just well-spoken men of middling intelligence wearing suits that say objectively wrong things. One such figure is John Lennox. Planet Peterson invited me onto his channel to react to a clip of him in conversation with Alex O'Connor, and he said a lot of objectively dumb and wrong things. Watch me and PP go poopoo on Lennox for an hour.

    Italian Phonetics Part 4: Accents and Stresses

    Some languages have funny little marks and accents. Not Italian! Once in a while there is an accent to tell us to stress the last syllable in a word, but most words won't have any such marks. Speaking of stresses, it can be confusing to know which syllable in a word to stress, so let's hit some rules so we know what to do when words get long!

    Matt Ridley is Lying to You About Climate Change

    Go to https://consensus.app/ for a new way to search through primary scientific literature! It's finally time to tackle climate change denial. There are so many frauds peddling disinformation in this realm, so who should we tackle? The answer is Matt Ridley. He is the poster boy for "lukewarmism", which is a version of climate change denial that accepts some science surrounding this topic but denies other science, which makes it very dangerous, since it appears rational and science-based to the untrained ear. It's kind of like intelligent design, if young earth creationism is equivalent to an outright denial that global warming is happening at all. Matt is a super rich coal man who peddles a well-crafted script of lies regarding anthropogenic global warming, the amount of warming that has occurred, the amount that is projected to occur, and how dangerous it is. Let's get way into the weeds and debunk all of his claims as thoroughly as humanly possible, so that everyone will be equipped to combat this propaganda wherever they find it.

    The Tale of Trump and the Woke Trans Mice

    It's time to start talking about Trump and his war on science. The budget cuts to the NIH have absolutely devastated the scientific community. When addressing Congress last week, with the help of DOGE crony Elon Musk, he made a claim that Biden spent 8 million dollars on making trans mice. This claim is so unbelievably idiotic that it's a challenge to even process. But the best thing to do is to dig into each and every single study that he was referencing and show you what they're really about, so you can see what a complete and utter moron Trump is, along with everyone in his corner. Come on, it'll be fun! I promise. Thanks to Zachary Payne for assisting in the research/writing that went towards making this video.
