This booklet is part of the ‘Innovations in Practical Work’ series published by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). Silicon-based sensors detect photons that we ourselves cannot, and so provide a real extension to our senses. The booklet looks at these...
This booklet is part of the ‘Innovations in Practical Work’ series published by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP) and produced in partnership with the British Geological Survey. Earthquakes release huge amounts of stored energy, causing movements of the...
The joy and challenge of building ‘cheap and cheerful’ sensors has a wide appeal to adults as well as children. It also opens a wide number of links to aspects of the mathematics, science, computing, design and technology, and engineering curricula, supporting scientific investigation and discovery. These...

These materials look at three possible projects that relate to sustainable transport:
* Communications project - students gather information and produce a balanced view on the costs and benefits of using hydrogen as fuel for vehicles.
* Practical project - students investigate the factors that affect...
These materials look at three possible projects that relate to cleaning products and tackling microbes that spread disease: * Communications project - students act as health promotion specialists trying to persuade people about the need to wash hands after using the toilet. * Practical project - students...
These materials look at three possible projects that relate to the bicycle used by an athlete in a triathlon: * Communications project - students gather information and give advice about which bike is suitable for a range of users. * Practical project - students undertake practical experiments to investigate the...
Students research, and then try out, ways of detecting analgesic compounds in mixtures:
• Chemical tests for particular organic functional groups.
• Paper and/or thin-layer chromatography to separate and identify analgesic...
In this project students use chromatography to detect forged cheques and other documents and various types of counterfeit goods. They will also investigate the best solvents to extract the inks and run TLC plates in order to compare the inks from the same part of a document printed on different models of a printer...
This resource describes an independent research project investigating the strength of jeans. Students could test the strength of seams in a pair of denim jeans, the tear resistance of denim, or try to work out how easily denim wears down by rubbing it on a rough surface. This will...
This resource describes 30 hours of independent project work for a silver Crest Award on the subject of art restoration. Students start by carrying out some research about paint pigments:
- What did early artists use? How did they colour their paints? What pigments were available to them?

In this project students research theme park rides and design and build a model of the pirate ship ride, concentrating on how to support the swinging parts. Another vital component is the support that holds the gondola and the counterweight. ...
Traditional fizzy drinks were made by fermentation using yeast. In this project, students make some fermented fizzy drinks investigate the effect of using additives and varying...
In this independent research project students research the causes and consequences of diarrhoea and dehydration. They find out about the different treatments available for dehydration and design some experiments to compare commercial and homemade oral rehydration salts.
