This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module began by exploring three questions related to chemical reactions: How much?, How fast? And How far? and went on to show how a model of atomic structure can account for the periodic table. Applications of chemistry related to...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module began with the study sound waves and vibrations including how the ear works and the properties of ultrasound. This led on to activities related to how sound vibrations are captured, recorded, and produced. The final group of...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module covered current electricity, electromagnetism and its applications, transformers and the mains electricity supply, the uses of electrolysis as well as electrostatics. The module was presented in four episodes:
El 1:...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module provides a programme of activities designed to help students to appreciate that current ways of supplying the energy needs of society are not sustainable. The module is presented in six episodes:
En 1: What are the...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module explored forces and motion to include collisions and explosions explained in terms of momentum. In the section about space the treatment covered circular motion as well as kinetic and potential energy. Activities in the...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module covered structure, bonding, as well as an introduction to quantitative chemistry with calculations based on amounts in moles. The topic was presented in three episodes:
Mm 1: Plastics
Mm 2: Metals
Mm 3:...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module covered solutions and a variety of systems in which one material is finely dispersed in another (colloids) as well as the properties and uses of glass, ceramics, metals and polymers. The module provided opportunities to...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module was presented in four episodes covering the topics of genetics and evolution, and related issues:
Ne 1: Variety
Ne 2: Inheritance
Ne 3: New forms of life
Ne 4: Issues

Nuffield Pathways Through Science was reorganised to match the new NEAB Modular Science specifications following the 1995 revisions to the National Curriculum. Much of the content of the programme was unchanged but the modules were cut to 12 and the materials...

This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module was presented in five episodes covering the biology of plants and animals as well as issues related to human interventions in the natural world: Pa 1: Living things in action Pa 2: Plants Pa 3: Animals Pa 4: Life cycles Pa 5: Issues
