This STEMNET resource describes the background and career of electrical and electronics undergraduate, and STEM Ambassador, Caron Malone.
Caron had always been interested in electronics and studied physics, maths and technology at school. She gained a Power Academy scholarship, which was introduced by power...
This STEMNET resource describes the background and career of STEM Ambassador Peter Damer, an engineer working for General Electric.
Peter works in selling and installing control systems. His engineering background has led him to take on a variety of roles that have included maintenance, project management...
A Catalyst article about what causes faults in electrical appliances and the wiring installations in homes, and why people receive electric shocks. How regulations can reduce the risk of electrical faults and electric shocks is also examined together with the use of fuses, fuse wire and modern RCDs (residual...
-
Describe the effects of an electric shock on a person.
-
Explain why there are no standard mains sockets in a bathroom....
In this lesson, students look at fluctuations in electricity sources by analysing large data sets. A student sheet is provided, containing data downloaded from MyGridGB - Charting GB Energy . This site provides current data on sources of electrical power...
Electricity is an analogy that provides a way of helping students develop a real understanding of simple electric circuits. This interactive resource is provided by the Association for Science Education (ASE).
Aspects...
This Nuffield Pathways Through Science module covered current electricity, electromagnetism and its applications, transformers and the mains electricity supply, the uses of electrolysis as well as electrostatics. The module was presented in four episodes:
El 1:...
This film clip shows how steam is used to drive turbines in power stations which burn fossil fuels. It then looks at how turbines can be adapted to be driven by alternative energy sources, and examines the advantages and disadvantages of energy sources such as wind, to solar, biomass, hydroelectric power, tidal and...
From the Institute of Physics, this resource provides extensive teacher guidance and suggested classroom activities to support the teaching of:
* Setting up electrical loops
* Electrical working in loops
* Designed devices switch pathways
* Efficiency and calculations
Each topic is...
A Year Ten module from the Salters double award science course. Models are used to illustrate conservation of current in a series circuit leading to studies of voltage, current and resistance and the resistance law. Devices which have different resistance in response to...
A Catalyst article about the UK's extremely reliable electricity supply system generated in power stations which burn gas or coal, or use nuclear fuel. The article looks at how this is achieved using high voltages and how the demands for power at different times of the day and year are met.
This article is...
The Frederick Bremer School developed this ‘off timetable’ STEAM activity with the help of a STEM Ambassador with interest and experience in this field of electronics as applied to music and dance performance. The activity incorporated electronics, control (switching), textiles, coloured and reflective fluorescent/...
This resource from the Institute of Physics, describes how electrocardiagrams (ECGs) record the activity of the heart through electrodes placed on a patient's skin. The teacher's notes contain an introduction to ECGs and lesson notes for the associated PowerPoint file. A mark scheme for the worksheet is also...
