These activities allow students to model how environmental scientists compare diversity in different ecosystems by using ordinary playing cards as ‘species’ to generate data to calculate Simpson’s Diversity Index. This can be completed in a single lesson. Some students find the concept of species diversity quite...
From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity shows how changing the price of a product changes the demand so putting the price up can reduce income. Modelling helps decision making. The mathematical ideas covered are:
• Percentage...
A multiple choice quiz on electricity, sensing, waves and quantum physics.
Although it is written for OCR AS/A level physics (H156, H556, H157, H557) it can be edited to suit your scheme of work.
This resource from the Institute of Physics, describes how electrocardiagrams (ECGs) record the activity of the heart through electrodes placed on a patient's skin. The teacher's notes contain an introduction to ECGs and lesson notes for the associated PowerPoint file. A mark scheme for the worksheet is also...
A multiple choice quiz on elements from the sea for AS/A level chemistry.
Although it is written for OCR AS/A level chemistry (Salters) H033/H433 course, it can be edited to suit your scheme of work.
A multiple choice quiz on elements of life for AS/A level chemistry.
Although it is written for OCR AS/A level chemistry (Salters) H033/H433 course, it can be edited to suit your scheme of work.
These resources have been produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC). Activities explore the work of people who develop and test blends of PVC for use in medical equipment.
Topics covered include how PVC is produced, why PVC is used for medical applications and how it is tested with...
These activities, from the Institute of Physics, look at electrical circuits. They provide a review of previous knowledge and introduce the language needed to cope with the greater depth of learning at post-16 level. Activities include: • a discussion about electrical circuits to reinforce knowledge and highlight...
From the Institute of Physics, these activities allow students to understand the idea of electric charge and its relationship to a flow of current. There are a range of activities and these include: • using an analogy to represent the movement of charge • defining current and the coulomb • calculations to show the...
From the Institute of Physics, in this learning episode, students calculate electrical power and through discussion, review their understanding of: • current • potential difference • electromotive force (emf) • charge • drift velocity Students are reminded of the idea that power is the rate of doing work (or the...
This series of activities, from the Institute of Physics, help student to understand electrical resistance. What is resistance, how it can be measured, how it arises and what affects it? During the topic, resistance is related to current, voltage, type of material, temperature and light intensity. The electrical...
From the Institute of Physics, this learning episode looks at the resistance of a metal and a semiconductor, giving a microscopic explanation of how resistance can vary with temperature. There is also a brief look at superconductivity and its applications.
...LDRs (light dependent resistors) are semiconductor devices. From the Institute of Physics, in this learning episode students investigate the resistance of an LDR at different light intensities. This can be used as a basis to explain how photons liberate free electrons...
In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students see how and why the resistance of a wire depends on the wire’s dimensions. They learn the definition of resistivity and use it in calculations.
...
Produced by the Institute of Physics, this learning episode helps students to investigate the effective resistance of circuits with components in series and parallel. The activities include demonstrations, worked examples and student investigations.
