In this Future of Flight challenge pupils explore the materials they know and how they might be grouped. They also consider what materials they could use to regulate temperature and protect against the cold. They create a bouncy ball using a synthetic material and...

A series of resources from the IET designed around the theme of the future of flight with the purpose of developing pupils knowledge and skills in design technology, engineering and mathematics.

The challenges in this resource invite pupils to explore innovations within flight technology. Explore the role of AI and machine learning and communication in aviation, investigate the forces of flight, experiment with material science and dig into the changes happening that are making flight technology more...

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils explore flight in nature investigating biomimicry and flight technology. They consider what the forces of flight are and investigate forces with gliders and through using a wind tunnel.

This Grand Challenge set of resources focuses on atmospheric pollution and the production of zero emission vehicles. The Level 1 materials are ideal for 11-14 year old students and includes ways to study lichens as a pollution indicator and measure particulate pollution. It then moves on to allow students to...

This lesson focuses on the properties of hydrogen and how it can be used as a fuel. It is appropriate to students aged 11 to 14 years.

Note: This is the first lesson of two. The second lesson builds on the knowledge gained by focusing on hydrogen fuel cells. It provides a way of contextualising classroom...

This lesson focuses on hydrogen fuel cells and how they work. It is appropriate to students aged 11 to 14 years.

Note: This is the second lesson of two.

The first lesson investigates the properties of hydrogen. This lesson builds on this knowledge by focusing on hydrogen fuel cells and hydrogen...

Futurecade was developed as an interactive suite of games allowing students to explore how science and technology impacts on their everyday lives. These resources were developed to accompany the games which were inspired by technology in the fields of robotics, satellites and space junk, geo-engineering...

GAIM Activities are open-ended tasks where achievements in using and applying mathematics can be assessed alongside content. In the investigations students explore pure mathematics.

GAIM provides teachers with 80 Activities (40 Investigations and 40 Practical Problems) as a resource for teaching and...

This resource from GAIM is a teacher assessment scheme, designed for use alongside any existing secondary mathematics programme of study, using open-ended tasks to encourage teaching and learning through practical problem solving and investigations.

This set of subject criteria were produced by the Ofqual, the Welsh Assembly and CEA (Northern Ireland) for Awarding Bodies to produce subject specifications for use in 2011 GCSE Science, GCSE Additional Science, GCSE Additional Applied Science, GCSE Biology, GCSE Chemistry, and GCSE Physics. GCSE specifications...

Following a EU rule change, the growing of GM crops across Europe will increase in many countries. It looks likely that GM foods such as breakfast cereals may be on our supermarket shelves within a year - but will many people choose them over GM-free alternatives? In this activity students apply their knowledge...
