This resource introduces the formulae for the surface areas of cylinders, cones and spheres. Students are asked to use these to...
This Core Maths task asks the question ‘How do you know if you are really unwell?’ The activity explores the data surrounding body temperature, shows how to summarise continuous data and explores the effect on summary statistics that changing the size of the class interval has.
Body temperature:...
This unplugged activity, from the CS4FN team at Queen Mary University of London, helps learners to understand variable assignment and operations. They use the idea of variables as boxes as the basis of a group activity, developing their use of logical thinking to trace variables through programs.
The...
The problem starts with choosing three distinct, non-zero integers between -5 and 5 that do not sum to zero. These are then used in a six factorisations that make use of...
This unplugged activity from Peter McOwan and Paul Curzon mingles computer science with biology. A group activity is used that mimics the firing of neurons within the brain. These trigger other neurons to fire – these can be compared to AND gates in logic circuits.
The ‘brain in a bag’ kits used in the...
In this module students will study barnacle morphology, life histories and life styles as Darwin did. He based his classification and search for a common ancestor upon his studies. Recent work using genetic and molecular evidence and scanning electron microscopy shows how some of the key difficulties in drawing the...
The Youth Grand Challenges is a new STEM competition that aims to inspire students aged 11-to-19. This resource provides a selection of ideas for research or practical projects on the subect of the spread of disease.
Curriculum links include pathogens, bacteria, epidemics, pandemics, malaria, water borne...
This Core Maths resource contains teachers' notes, lesson plan and student handouts that explore budgeting and foreign exchange. The two topics can be combined into one large project or taught as two discrete tasks.
There is a Powerpoint presentation of the tasks for classroom use, including possible...
Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics. This presentation introduces an explanation and a simulation of Buffon's Needles experiment, that yields an approximation for π, before developing the experiment further by asking what would happen if the shape of the needles were...
This resource, produced by SEPNet and Queen Mary University of London, uses Lego to represent the building blocks of matter. Different colour Lego bricks are assigned to different quarks and leptons. The quarks can be put together to make hadrons, such as protons and neutrons. The blocks can also be used to show...
This is a classroom-based activity from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute that allows students to explore the features of two bacterial pathogen genomes. The aim of this activity is to highlight the role of different genetic components in two closely related subspecies of Salmonella enterica, and to identify how...
In this activity, students create colour images from satellite data. This allows them to study how different surfaces reflect different wavelengths of light, how coloured images are created using an RGB model, and how band combinations can be chosen to examine a particular landscape effectively.
This toolkit explores important economic indicators and trends in the UK economy. Students can use the World trade explorer and access a range of raw data about different economic indicators. These can help them to analyse and interpret trends and patterns within the UK economy. They can also explore the economic...
This activity from the Nuffield Foundation shows students how to use Kruskal’s and Prim’s algorithms to solve minimum connector problems. A cable TV company wants to lay cables to connect the towns, laying the cable along the roads shown on a map of the Isle of Wight. They want to connect all of these towns to...
This lesson develops the concept of finding areas of sectors. In particular students will:
- Find perimeters, areas, and arc lengths of sectors using formulas
- Find the relationships between arc lengths, and areas of sectors after scaling
- Using radians
The initial challenge...
