Nice, are you now working in education or is steemit more of a hobby?

Mate, I'd love to do this education and steemit as a full time gig, and I'm trying to work towards it. Engineering was surprisingly an unstable career choice in Australia, so I'm actually now nearly completed a Physiotherapy degree at the same University. Maths, engineering and teaching in those areas is till my passion, so I'll definitely continue on this path even if it's part time. :)

Physiotherapy is an interesting choice! I had this idea for a site a while back when I was still trying to figure out what I wanted to do which would be a collection of resources (videos and books etc) that would guide you towards increasing your understanding of particular subjects. So I would have this problem where I could read any number of popular physics or science books but never really get to the sort of pre undergrad level that I needed to see what the subject was really about. Everything online was either way to advanced, I already thought I knew the content or I didn't think I needed to know a seemingly unrelated bit of maths for something in physics. Say you went to the site and wanted to learn more about Quantum Mechanics, then the site would say you need to know all this linear algebra and calculus and give you good resources for those topics. If you're interested, I'd quite like collaborate to start compiling a list for different topics around maths, physics and engineering to see whether the site is viable.

Sounds like a great idea. I'm definitely open to it. Short term commitment may be a challenge at the moment because I have some final end of semester exams coming up. Also, I'm still new to Steemit, so I'm not sure yet about the best way to communicate on a more personal level.

What you're describing is sort of what I'm trying to achieve with my videos (primarily on YouTube). It's been an on and off labor of love for the past 4 years. I'd love to have something eventually as big as Khan Academy, but more specialised for Engineering.

I love the idea of progressive content. So with my current videos on DE's, I started at the basics and eventually want to cover the entire spectrum, up to where it's applied in dynamics, heat equations and structural analysis.
