These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Describe the process of electrolysis in terms of chemical reactions occurring at the electrodes.
• Identify the cathode (or anode) in a diagram of the electrolysis of a solution of...

This video demonstrates an experiment to investigate how current affects the strength of a magnetic field. The Phyphox app on a mobile phone is used to measure the magnetic field strength. The second part explains how to plot a graph to evaluate the relationship between current and magnetic field strength. 

This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at electromagnetic radiation. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 11 to 19 years. The problems were created to be authentic glimpses of...

Following a presentation on the electromagnetic spectrum, students are asked to produce a presentation which must include the following:

*How frequency is involved in categorising different waves.

Produced by StoryCog, this video demonstrates the process of electromagnetic induction. The video shows a simple piece of equipment that can readily be made which contains spinning magnets, a wire coil and a lamp. Spinning the magnets past the coil produces an electric current and lights the lamp.

This activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), is one of a series of activities which explores body centric communications. Students study data and annotate a diagram to show what electromagnetic radiation can penetrate the atmosphere. The...

• Identify types of electromagnetic radiation that can be naturally occurring.
• Describe a range of sources of harmful electromagnetic...

This poster shows how the electromagnetic spectrum has been divided into seven ‘types’ according to use, with a look at how the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) uses it in high precision measurement.

This activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), looks at the properties and applications of waves in general, and the electromagnetic spectrum in particular. Students are asked to work out the type of electromagnetic radiation used in different...

This video revises the order of electromagnetic spectrum (GCSE) and introduces the range of magnitudes of wavelengths and corresponding frequencies for each type of electromagnetic radiation.

This video helps students to visualise the electric and magnetic field components of an electromagnetic wave.

The electric and magnetic oscillations (vibrations) are at 90⁰ to each other and also to the direction of energy propagation. 

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

The lesson suggests a sequence of activities and key questions to ask to...
