Produced by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), these naked Scientist podcasts look at a wide range of general science questions in an accessible and informative way. In these podcasts, the Naked Scientist answers questions from callers into Talk Radio...

The four multiple choice quizzes, from the Association for Science Education (ASE).

The everyday science puzzles cover the questions:

Moon blues: Can we really have a blue moon?

Insular electrons: How do you recharge an electric toothbrush through its plastic case?

Inner glow: Why does...

These quizzes, from the Association for Science Education (ASE) are based around the SYCD: Science Year Is There Life? theme. The prizes could be tickets to a local science centre museum or a local cinema, which they often give away free to good causes. To engage other teachers across the school science teachers...

Those quizzes have been provided by the Association for Science Education (ASE) and are based on the SYCD: Science Year Only Connect? theme. The subjects covered in the questions include: cells, reproduction, variation and classification, inheritance and selection.

This is one of the 18 Background Books published for Stage II of the Nuffield Chemistry Sample Scheme. The books were highly illustrated and designed to be attractive. This book describes applications of chemistry but includes some historical sections and covers some applications.

There are six parts to this...

From triple science support, the resources in this collection look at various ways that schools can raise standards of attainment in triple science courses at GCSE.

Note: These resources have been included in this collection for teachers’ use, however they may contain some information, particularly...

This resource provides a lesson plan showing how to use modelling-based teaching to teach about chemical equilibrium. The approach used in the lesson is based on education research which is summarised in a separate research summary document.

The lesson outlines how to use a demonstration of the appearance of...

These downloadable videos and animations are part of the multimedia package Stuff and Substance, developed by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). They can be used to develop ideas relating to the factors which affect the rate of dissolving and the particle...

These downloadable animations are part of the multimedia package Stuff and Substance, developed by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). They can be used to develop ideas relating to the factors which affect the rate of evaporation and the particle model...

High levels of ultraviolet radiation out in space drive reactions that can turn white beads into their coloured form. Students investigate how temperature affects the rate at which the beads turn back to white. At key stage five, students can use the results sheet template to find the activation enthalpy. In the...

This booklet contains a range of suggested activities and contexts for teaching about rates at A level. Curriculum links include  collision theory, rates experiments, reaction mechanisms, rate equations, half-life, calculations, order of reaction, graphs, rate-determining step, and kinetics.

Although...

The simulation can be used to:

*Relate the real-world example of making sandwiches to chemical reactions.

*Describe what limiting reactant means using examples of sandwiches and chemicals at a particle level.

*Identify the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction.

*Explain the Law of...
