Teaching A level /KS5 physics for the first time RA527 / A03
Summary
Are you teaching KS5 physics for the first time? Perhaps you have been teaching it for a few years and are now looking for some new ideas to get the most out of practical work. This session focuses on teaching the practical component of A-level Physics. We will look at developing practical skills & independence in practical working; and the application of practical skills to the exam. We will also consider the associated maths skills, particularly around graphs and uncertainties.
