Instantaneous rate
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Identify observational evidence of the formation of a new product with new properties.
- Distinguish rate from time.
- Distinguish average rate from instantaneous rate of...
This collection of resources from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications includes:
- Mathematics careers resources as well as materials developed by the More Maths Grads project

This Institute of Physics Schools and Colleges Lecture 2009 is delivered by astronomer Dr Andrew Newsam.
From the Institute of Physics, this collection of resources gives careers information for students, teachers and careers advisers. There is a set of video clips that follow the work of individual scientists as they show how physics is applied in their work. The video clips illustrate concepts in physics and how...
The Institute of Physics Schools and Colleges Lecture has been delivered by a series of acclaimed physics communicators, throughout the UK, since 1993. Topics are explained using a wide range of visual aids and the one hour lectures are accessible to students aged 14 years old and above. They are designed to tie in...
The Supporting Physics Teaching initiative from the Institute of Physics is intended to support specialist and non-specialist teachers who teach 11-16 physics.
Each topic contains a physics narrative, teaching and learning issues and teaching approaches:
• The physics narrative explains the physics of...
Instruction sets
Students will explore the difference between RISC and CISC instruction sets by navigating a rover to different locations on a given map. They will explore how increasing the range of instructions can reduce the number of instructions required but increase the amount of data required to store the commands. They will...
Instructions, flow charts and decisions
For this session students will think about what instructions are needed within the software of the ExoMars rover and how they will make the hardware work to complete tasks successfully. There will be a focus on three steps within computational thinking: identify the problem, decomposition and collecting data. After...
