Vicki Smith - physicist

Physicists are involved in a wide range of activities, including electronics, energy, space, transport, medicine and materials. Their work can involve designing and conducting experiments, simulating real-life problems and conditions in laboratories, or making a series of observations which are written up in...

Victorian engineering research

Inspired by the theme of the Victorians, this activity supports the teaching of design and technology in context by investigating the key inventions made during the Victorian era, and how they have influenced engineering today.

In this classroom activity pupils will learn about the Victorian era and the...

Victorian Tiles

This resource is part of a Nuffield Maths collection exploring Shape and Space. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

Through these resources students learn about shape and space using patterns, created by tessellating geometric shapes in Victorian...

Victorians

Through this challenge, pupils will have the opportunity to explore and understand the everyday life of the Victorians. Pupils will have the opportunity to identify potential problems/areas of Victorian life where an invention could be useful and to use drawing, writing and speech to communicate their invention to...

Video

Purpose: Recording a video clip of motion or colour change is an effective means of generating data, but video can also be created to communicate the methods and findings of a practical science activity.

Teaching approach: Still images, and video clips can be imported into a video editing app, where they can...

Video analysis

Purpose: As an alternative to traditional methods of investigating motion in the classroom, such as ticker tape timers or light gates, it is simpler and cheaper to analyse video clips of the movement of objects. Cameras in mobile phones and tablets can record a brief video which when imported into a video analysis...
