Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these materials enable students to study sedimentary structures and, by practical investigations, the processes that form them.

Work in the school laboratory helps students to understand how ancient rock structures and geological histories can be...

Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these resources look at domestic waste disposal.

Students examine options for dealing with waste, including the use of landfill. They also consider other uses for such 'holes in the ground' that remain after the extraction of mineral resources.

These materials, from the Earth Science Teachers' Association, show the role of geology and geologists in the selection of sites for the disposal of nuclear waste.

Activities encourage students to consider the features of appropriate sites.

Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these resources encourage students to observe different rock types in their local environment.

This includes the simple laboratory tests on the properties of different rock types and an appreciation of the range of rocks used in buildings.

Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these resources help students to understand that land movements occur in Britain and investigate the factors that lead to ground failure. Students consider how potential failures can be managed.

Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these materials encourage students to examine a case study for a water supply scheme.

Students look at features such as porosity, permeability and hydrological data whilst analysing the scheme.

In this Catalyst article the work of archaeologists working on the graves of World War One (WWI) victims is described. The total number of military dead in WWI is estimated at 8.5–10 million. In the mud and confusion, many of the dead did not have proper burials. Many temporary graves were destroyed by later...

Published in September 2010, this summary of an online survey focusses on attempting to understand the factors relating to the retention of science teachers.

The full collection of STEM Learning impact and evaluation research reports can be viewed here...

These resources have been produced by the Association for Science Education (ASE) and the Centre for Science Education at Sheffield Hallam University. Based on contemporary issues, they help to make science accessible, relevant and engaging to secondary school students. The range of resources utilises a variety of...

The Science with Technology project was a joint initiative of the Association for Science Education (ASE) and the Design and Technology Association (DATA). It was set up to develop curriculum links between science and technology for students aged 14-19 years. The...

The Science with Technology extended units were each planned to provide in-depth coverage of a topic or an area of the curriculum. The units were created as part of a joint initiative of the Association for Science Education and the Design and Technology Association....

The Science with Technology focused units were each planned to concentrate on a particular aspect of a topic. The units were created as part of a joint initiative of the Association for Science Education and the Design and Technology Association.

The Science with Technology Tool kit consisted of a series of three units designed to
provide students with opportunities to acquire a range of key skills valued by business and industry in a way that also supports their own work.
