A Year Ten module from the Salters’ double award science course. The module begins by looking at the large variety of labour-saving devices now available and their impact on life-styles. Students work with a range of common electrical devices to investigate the relative...
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 booklet is part of the ‘Innovations in Practical Work’ series published by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). An important part of understanding energy is getting to know the different ways it can be stored and transferred. Finding ways to do this with...
A Year 11 module from the Salters’ Key Stage Four double award science course. This module deals with the generation, transmission and supply of electric power.
Understanding of the inductive effect is developed...
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...
Produced by the Centre for Science Education, this Science Assessment Task for More Able Students, comprises of two investigations with a space-related theme. Students investigate what needs to be considered if humans are to colonise our solar system.
They look at:
* forces and the force of gravity...
In this activity developed by the Institute of Physics, students use simple diffraction gratings to observe the spectra from different sources, and deduce how scientists can work out which chemicals are present in an exoplanet’s atmosphere. When an exoplanet passes in front of its star, some of the starlight is...
In this lesson, students will be introduced to the advantages of big telescopes and the use of telescopes to do astronomy across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. They will then explore the transit method of detecting exoplanets (either practically, or using real astronomical data) and use mathematics to...
Explore Your Universe is a partnership between the UK Association for Science and Discovery Centres (ASDC) and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). The vision for the project is to inspire a new sense of excitement amongst young people and their families through telling the amazing stories and...
A variety of resources, from the Association for Science Education (ASE): a model spreadsheet exploring sound waves, two articles from Catalyst magazine, Hunt the Transmitter activity and Reading Rain Radars.
Sound Waves is a good example building spreadsheet models that students can...
In the 1970s astronomers took an image of a region of the surface of Mars called “Cydonia“ which resembled a face. ...
This resource presents some real seismic data recorded before a volcanic eruption and allows students to locate some of the resulting earthquakes by use of graphs and maps.
...
This resource, produced by SEPNet and Queen Mary University of London, uses Lego to represent the building blocks of matter. Different colour and size Lego bricks are assigned to protons, neutrons and electrons. Fusion is shown by joining bricks together and fission by breaking large collections of bricks apart....
What is the perfect curve of a ball’s trajectory, what must the ideal turf be like, and...
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...
