Phony physics
In this activity students try several different experiments and then write true and false explanations. Explaining to others in the club, they must decide on the true answer.
Photoelectric Effect
Produced by the National STEM Learning Centre and the Institute of Physics, this video demonstrates how to use a gold-leaf electroscope, zinc plate and an ultraviolet light source. The zinc plate is placed onto the top of the electroscope and it is given a negative charge.
The electroscope can be...
'Modern hospitals have changed enormously in your lifetime. Thanks to amazing technological advances, we can see what is happening inside the body in more and more detail. Much of this is because of the work of medical physicists.' These practicals and videos use a workplace context to help students discover how...
Physical Health: Activity Sheets
Five activity sheets produced by the Institute of Physics (IOP) to accompany the Model Project's Physical Health video.
Worksheet one takes an overview of the topic. Worksheets two - five are targeted at specific sections of the video.
Answers to all the worksheet questions are provided in the Word...
Physical Health: Practicals
Three practicals produced by the Institute of Physics (IOP) that help students to understand some of the physics used in medical analysis. In addition to the guidance included for specific activities, please refer to the generic health and safety information before commencing any practical activity. This resource...
Physical Health: Videos
This video, from the Institute of Physics (IOP), shows medical scientists at work using a variety of sophisticated devices which use principles of physics to investigate what is happening inside the body.
The video is presented as a whole but for ease of use, the following sections are available at the...
This collection from Physicists in Primary Schools (PIPS) is designed to interest and enthuse young children with the enjoyment and excitement of physics. Developed by a team from the University of Sheffield for the Institute of Physics (IOP), it is designed to support primary school teachers particularly with...
