This resource provided by Siemens contains three lessons which link to various aspects of energy production and electricity. The lessons are:

• The magic of making electricity - Pupils find out how electricity can be produced and used. They look at examples of hand crank technology and...

After investigating how photovoltaic cells are used and then making a series of electronic circuits of increasing complexity, students investigate some potential modifications to the circuits they have designed and made in the ‘Let there be light 2' activity.

This resource, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), involves investigating how photovoltaic cells are used and then using this technology to make a series of electronic circuits of increasing complexity. This could form the basis of a design and...

In this activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), students investigate the photovoltaic effect by manufacturing a simple circuit and integrating it into a product, in this case a version of the popular jitterbug project.

In this activity from the Institution of Engineering and technology (IET), students investigate the photovoltaic effect by designing and making a solar power night-light circuit. This could form the basis of a design and make assignment project in design and technology...

From Practical Action, this resource encourages students to look at how design specifications are balanced when developing new products.

This collection of classroom presentations, student worksheets and student revision activities support the teaching of:

• types of motion (I.e. reciprocating, oscillating, linear, rotary)
• gears (I.e. bevel, idler, gear trains
• pulleys
• levers (I.e. first order, second order,...

This STEAM activity gives pupils the opportunity to explore engineering through the design and creation of their own moving part aircraft. Pupils have the opportunity to work as part of a group to carefully design their own aircraft and think hard about how to create a moving propeller or a landing gear, before...

The Licence to Cook programme, funded by the Department for Education to provide all students with the opportunity to learn how to cook, as well as make informed decisions about diet and nutrition, health and safety and wise food shopping. The course is designed to be integrated into the Key Stage Three Food...

These case studies were produced by teachers working as Lead Practitioners for the Licence to Cook programme. Although the activities and worksheets they designed were based on the Licence to Cook programme, the resources demonstrate how the course could be changed and adapted to suit local needs.

The...

These case studies from Licence to Cook provide examples of activities and worksheets developed by lead practitioners to support the teaching and learning of basic cooking skills in the classroom.

Making a snack is a homework activity which asks students to analyse and review a snack they...

These case studies from Licence to Cook provide examples of activities and worksheets developed by lead practitioners to support the teaching of health and safety in food technology.

Safety and equipment is an example of a short worksheet for Year Seven students covering how to use a cooker...

These case studies from Licence to Cook provide examples of activities and worksheets developed by lead practitioners to support the teaching of product evaluation in food technology.

[b]Word bank for evaluations sheets[/b] gives a table of sensory terms which can be used to help students select and use...

These face-to-face teaching sessions are part of the Licence to Cook course, and were designed to enable teachers to deliver a minimum of three hours of learning about diet and nutrition, wise food shopping and hygiene and safety.

A range of activities are suggested for each of the three learning areas,...

During these cooking sessions, from Licence to Cook, students will: • become familiar with the cooking area • learn about or recap the safe use of a knife • use basic kitchen equipment • use the oven safely • prepare a range of fresh ingredients, including peeling and grating • weigh and measure ingredients Each...
