This STEMNET resource describes the background and career of tunnel design engineer and STEM Ambassador Kate Woolley.
Kate designs and supervises the construction of tunnels and finds that she needs to use maths, physics and technology to make everyday decisions. Engineering, however, had not always seemed a...
This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows the application of mathematics when building an underground storage tank, with an elliptical cross section. Health and safety requirements apply and the depth to which the tank must be buried is established using the 2D geometry of an ellipse,...
This activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), challenges students to calculate the dimensions of an underground tunnel system. Students are encouraged to move beyond an ‘out of sight, out of mind’ approach to sewage as they use and develop...
From the LSIS, this activity helps students understand risk assessment and its application in a range of settings. It has four stages: * Stage 1 - considers the five principles of risk assessment and moves on to consider the guidelines for determining the level of risk. * Stage 2 - students assess the hazards and...
This resource looks at measuring sizes of hands and presenting data.
Suggested Learning Outcomes
- To understand what is meant by ergonomics and anthropometrics in design.
- To be able to give examples of ergonomic design and the use of anthropometric data.
- To...
Inspired by the Born to Engineer video from Kim Cave-Ayland, an engineer whose work is helping to create a safe, low polluting power source that could change our energy future, this resource supports students to work with data on UK energy consumption, exploring how energy generation is managed and what type of...
This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows the application of mathematics within the field of mechanical engineering and explores the design and construction of wheels, to be used to challenge a land speed record. These principles also apply in engines and gear-boxes, which are typically full...
Rockets are used to launch satellites, probes and even astronauts into space. A rocket launch is extremely impressive. Thousands of kilograms are burned in just a few minutes in order to provide the force that the rocket needs in order to overcome the gravity of the Earth. Rockets provide an exciting context to...
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), this case study looks at the themes of knowledge and technology transfer and employer engagement. It involved a member of staff from the automotive department at City College, Birmingham undertaking a secondment to the Jaguar Land Rover production...
Publishedin 2009 by LSIS, this report describes an action research project carried out by Hopwood Hall College. The project involved trialling the use of several DVDs on a range of engineering topics, then linking them in an electronic workbook using notebook software. Outcomes on teaching and learning as well as...
This document from the Department of Education looks at how Blessed Trinity Roman Catholic School uses an 'on-call' room, a nurture room to support pupils in managing their social skills. The resource explores the school's on-call room, staff response to misbehaviour and individual behaviour support, as part of the...
This document from the Department of Education looks at how Stopsley Community Primary School encourages good behaviour by rewarding pupils. The resource explores the school's house point system, resources and support for teachers and their 'red carpet' policy as part of the managing behaviour and bullying in...
Produced by the Learning Skills Improvement Service, these materials help to demonstrate effective practice. This case study looks at the themes of harnessing technology and curriculum development. North Nottinghamshire College received a grant from the East Midlands Development Agency to purchase computer...
This resource uses VEX IQ robotics as a context for physics lessons. Lesson content covers an understanding of robots and their uses, forces, pressure and moments. The resources is presented with student activities, worksheets and a classroom presentation.
Aimed at primary level, the activities within this pack demonstrate key ideas and concepts used in designing and constructing buildings such as: how levers and pulleys work, the properties of materials and the forces involved in different structures. Activities include: making a lever to lift a grown up, making...
