This challenge provides a STEM activity day in which teams of children work together to design a way of getting lighthouse keepers back to the mainland from a lighthouse...
In this resource students will carry out experiments with prisms, polarising film and 3D cinema glasses to explain some of the interesting properties of light and their applications.
Curriculum links include refractive index, total internal reflection, polarisation
In this activity students literally form a line to demonstrate their understanding of the environmental, economic and social impact of everyday products, then discuss and debate. The activity helps them understand the impact of everyday products throughout their life cycle from manufacturing to disposal.
Have you ever travelled on a large vehicle ferry? How are the vehicles loaded? Why do you think it matters which vehicles go on first or where they are put on the car deck?If you are loading cargo (into a rucksack, onto a boat, onto ...
These activities use the challenge of finding a suitable geographical location for the BLOODHOUND SSC world land-speed record attempt as a context for teaching about interpreting graphs and diagrams.
The attempt aims...
A National STEM Learning Centre and Network Engineering Case Studies resource investigating the super magnets used in MRI scanning machines.
Can MRI scans discover if you're telling lies?
...In this activity students make their own zoetrope, which creates the illusion of a moving pictures by rapidly spinning individual static pictures. A movie is traditionally made from 24 frames of individual images played per second to create the moving picture. Originally a vintage toy from the 1830s, a zoetrope (...
This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science and design and technology. This resource focusses on identifying whether or not everyday products are made from magnetic materials.
Some...
This is one of a series of resources from the Institution of Engineering and Technology, produced in association with Fairfield Control Systems, exploring the theme of waterways.
In this lesson, pupils will focus on the Anderton boat lift, which was restored by a multi-company collaboration including...
This activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), looks at the properties and applications of waves in general, and the electromagnetic spectrum in particular. Students are asked to work out the type of electromagnetic radiation used in different...
One of a set of resources from the IET that uses the theme of the Chinese and Lunar New Year to help pupils develop their knowledge and skills in design and technology, and engineering...
In this activity, students create musical instruments using recycled materials. They are then asked to analyse the musical notes their instruments produce using free-to-download software. The challenge is for the students to see how close the notes their instruments make can get to those produced by real...
”When you tell people you make stars for a living, their heads turn and their mouths open.” The video features Dr Kim Cave-Ayland who is a control engineer at Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE).
These resources explores how engineers have used their knowledge of waves to improve lives. The activities include:
- Using the reflection of light to create a floating image
- Investigating the best material for thermal resistance (insulation) in a survival suit
