Hello Physics Forums:

I wanted to share a new science-education video series called 'Think About'. We just completed the first eight mini-episodes. 'Think About' airs on American Forces Network (AFN) and the audience is pretty special: kids that are overseas with their military parents. The videos are also available, at no cost, to educational organizations, public broadcasting, etc.

In any case, we'd love to have some feedback and also suggestions for future episodes.

A few samples are below and you can see all eight episodes on YouTube here:

Very professionally done & interesting for kids.
 
That's very well done. Having spent some time overseas watching AFN myself, I am sure these videos will be appreciated.
 
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
