Nuffield Science 13 to 16: Study Guide 1

This Nuffield 13-16 Study Guide I was intended as the first of a series in response to feedback from teachers using the resources. In the end, only this volume was published. It was designed to support the teaching of the 15 'B' Units with:
*a set of straightforward accounts, summarising the contents covered by working through the units in the laboratory
*background reading related to each of the units
*a series of questions or tasks which could be used to test both recall and understanding of the work carried out in the laboratory or field, and the ability to use associated process skills.
