Differentiation and Integration
This resource contains eleven problems requiring students to explore where turning points occur, match statements about functions to statements about derivative functions and gradients of graphs at specific points on the curve, explore the tangent and normal to a curve, suggest a possible graph given information...
Differentiation Exercise
This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore the differential function of a polynomial and conclude by forming a generalisation.
An instruction page explains to students that they should draw a polynomial. Then by sliding the slider the...
This title begins by defining differentiation, discussing why it matters and exploring how it can promote freedom, enthusiasm and creativity without compromising results. It includes sections on ability, potential...

Difficult Decisions
This SATIS Revisited resource is a structured group discussion activity, which looks at the use and abuse of drugs to enhance sporting performance.
The unit provides a rationale for teaching about ethical issues in science for students age 14–16. The aim is to introduce the idea that the discussion of...
Diffraction
Practical use of diffraction gratings include emission spectra as well as explorations of the wave-particle nature of light and the interference patterns that emerge.
...Diffraction of laser light
In these short videos, Michael de Podesta explains how a laser can be used to show the diffraction and interference of light. Using a laser pen in the classroom, the wave nature of light is demonstrated as a thin wire is used to generate an easily-seen interference pattern.
Two versions of the video are...
