Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How do touch screens work? - Science Short
Q: How do touch screens work?
Most modern touchscreens use capacitive sensors. A finger changes electrical conditions near the screen, and sensors identify its position; software interprets the touch as a tap, swipe or zoom.
Special Edition: Governor-General, Sam Mostyn AC
Q: Can you just describe for us what social cohesion is and why it's important?
Mostyn describes social cohesion as people getting along, avoiding the erosion of shared institutions, and retaining trust and pride in the structures that let communities work together. She says cohesion can deteriorate gradually if people stop paying attention.
Special Edition: Governor-General, Sam Mostyn AC
Q: How important do you think media literacy education is to ensure that our kids are growing up with the sorts of critical thinking skills that will enable them to recognise when they're being manipulated online?
Mostyn calls media literacy beyond essential and says it should be taught from the earliest age alongside reading, writing and numeracy. She sees media literacy and civics as foundational skills for capable young people and good citizens.
How do trees take in carbon dioxide and make the oxygen we breathe? Science Short
Q: How do trees take in carbon dioxide and make the oxygen that we breathe?
Roots absorb water and carry it to the leaves, where stomata admit carbon dioxide. Chlorophyll captures sunlight, which powers photosynthesis: the tree makes sugars from water and carbon dioxide and releases oxygen from water molecules through the stomata. Phytoplankton and other organisms also produce oxygen, with roughly half of Earth's oxygen production happening in the ocean.
Aaron Blabey - Author of Pig the Pug, Bad Guys and Game of Pets - and a Squiz Kids Q+A
Q: What are signs and appearance changes that our pets will make if they are part of an intergalactic game show?
Blabey jokes that all pets are involved. In the story, pets use mind control to nudge people into choices that harm the environment, while a boy and his talking axolotl try to reveal the truth.
