STEMsocial Distilled #4

(Edited)

Welcome to our fourth distilled of the best articles posted within the STEMsocial community last week. This also means that STEMsocial is alive on Hive for more than a month! We didn't manage to post it on Monday, so here we go with a Tuesday night edition (because of a too heavy physics workload for @lemouth). Many of the advertised posts can however still be voted on. So please don't hesitate to give them a read and show your support (if not already done).

For those who do not know what STEMsocial is, please take a look here (this will be updated in in the following days), or pass by Discord, the Hive Chat, Twitter or Facebook.


Before moving on with the two best posts that have been selected from all the posts found by our curators last week, here is the most supported ones:

AuthorTitle
@lupafilotaxiaOrganography and Plant Histology of Terminalia catappa (Combretaceae)
@jhimmelA Root must Touch Soil to Grow
@gentleshaidA visit to the flame of the forest
@gentleshaidThe potentials of tropical plants in the management of COVID-19 symptoms
@erh.germanyThe corona phenomenon

Interested in being part of that list? Please check these guidelines or ask for a mentor on Discord or on the Hive Chat.


Our top choices



The potentials of tropical plants in the management of COVID-19 symptoms


It has been reported that many people getting the COVID-19 virus suffer from extensive diarrhea. In order to avoid too many drugs, there are ways to treat those symptoms with plants. This is the topic our biology expert @gentleshaid shares with us today. Feel free to pass by the post and have a look for more information.

A Root must Touch Soil to Grow


This is about a mission aiming at vitalising STEM learning in Liberia to which @jhimmel participated. He describes his experience in great details and show how this managed to reinforce schools by impacting the way STEM is taught to students.The outcome is clearly positive as many local teachers planned to adapt their teaching style after the mission. Feel free to give the post a read!

Wow.... These are very great articles.

Congratulations to all the authors shortlisted, especially @gentleshaid for having two of his posts featured.

I commend the STEMsocial management as well. Just keep up the great work. The sky is your stepping stone.
