The A2 student book deepens understanding of crucial ideas to prepare students for further study, and provides further opportunities for personal involvement and individual initiative.
The AS student book is designed to inspire students of physics. It provides an introduction to physics and its uses which prepares the way for possible further study.
Are You a Good Scientist?
An Institute of Physics resource to act as a stimulus for teaching about the nature of science ('How Science Works'). It consists of a poster and questions that highlight safe and ethical approaches to scientific work.
It is hoped that this resource will be useful in preparing students for courses where...
This item is one of over 25,000 physical resources available from the Resources Collection. The Archive Collection covers over 50 years of curriculum development in the STEM subjects. The Contemporary Collection includes all the latest publications from UK educational publishers.
Ashfield Music Festival
Ashfield Music Festival is one day off-timetable activity in which students develop skills in enterprise and learn how physics applies in the context of setting up a music festival by taking on one of six roles: project manager, health and safety advisor, construction manager, electrical engineer, sound engineer or...

Asteroids and Comets
In this Teaching Astronomy and Space video, from the Institute of Physics (IOP), Teachers TV and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), astronomer Jay Tate reveals the risks and dangers of an asteroid collision with the Earth.
...These wide-ranging resources provide information and guidance that will help practitioners and employers consider issues such as gender equality, subject choice, inclusive pedagogy and providing successful work placements.
Bin-bag Capacitor
Produced by the National STEM Centre and the Institute of Physics, this video shows how two metal foil sheets and a bin-bag can be used to show how a capacitor works. The metal foil acts as the plates and the bin-bag as the dielectric. The model capacitor can be charged and discharged as well as demonstrating...
Black Holes - an Essential Component of Our Universe
Black holes provide an important tool for testing the fundamental laws of the universe. This resource from the Institute of Physics, looks at the extreme physics associated with black holes, how we can spot them, and what roles they may play in galaxy formation.
This guide looks at stellar black holes and...
