This resource, from the Royal Observatory Greenwich, has a video that introduces 'light' as the electromagnetic spectrum and how an electromagnetic wave is made. It discusses the wavelength, speed and frequency of electromagnetic waves and how we can detect them. How light interacts with matter and the concept of...

This challenging video takes a philosophical approach to discussing what information is. It begins by equating information to entropy. Entropy is explained as the degree of order or alternatively randomness that exists. Examples of ordered information are the arrangement of molecules in DNA, letters in words and...
