In this project, students make their own aspirin or paracetamol and then test the purity of the pain-reliever and compare it to shop-bought. This covers titrations, chromatography and other analytical techniques.
The aim of this project is to investigate the properties of alcohol/water mixtures, and how these properties can be used to measure alcohol content. The alcohol in drinks is ethanol, C2H5OH. However, the ethanol used in the laboratory has been methylated by adding 5% of methanol, CH3...
This activity, from the Association for Science Education (ASE) has been developed specifically to deliver science and history teaching through the context of space travel.
Cross-curricular activities strengthen links with other departments in a school, and help students to integrate their scientific...
In this activity, students synthesise prior learning about structure and bonding, and about enzymes, and apply it to a new context: X-ray crystallography. The main part of the activity involves students pitching for funding for new equipment – how will they use the...
Two worksheet based activities that can be used to identify the impacts of technology upon people to sustain their communities in the future. The first activity considers the cultural impact upon sustainability with key questions to research and the second task is an analysis activity looking at cultural, economic...
In this activity students investigate the mystery of a light beam which seems to bend. Students can investigate:
- Qualitative behaviour of light when the medium in which it propagates changes its refraction index.
- Quantitative evaluation of the behaviour of light in refraction by means of...
Seven activity sheets produced by the Institute of Physics (IOP) to accompany the MODEL Project's Cutting Edge Materials video.
Worksheet one takes an overview of the topic. Worksheets two - seven are targeted at specific sections of the video.
Answers to all the worksheet questions are provided in...
In this activity, from the Institution of Engineering and technology (IET), students are introduced to how the present body centric antenna, plus prosthetic technology, could be compared to science fiction ‘cyborgs’. Students are also asked to discuss ethical issues...
Produced in 2015, these resources use Cystic Fibrosis as a context to provide an opportunity to develop students understanding of a number of key concepts in biology in a connected and real way. Scientific advances in the treatment and diagnosis of CF are fast moving,...
There are two parts to the DIY Dendrometer resources:
Part A focusses on how trees grow and their role within both the carbon cycle and the water cycle. Learners are encouraged to take part in a citizen science project which involves creating and installing a DIY...
From the Sanger Institute, this craft based activity suitable for classroom use or science festivals where students make a DNA sequence bracelet that carries part of the code of an organism such as a human, trout, chimpanzee or butterfly.
The activity reinforces the principle of complementary base pairs as...
Activities in this resource aim to:
- celebrate the achievement of completing the Human Genome project in 2003
- show the relevance of genome sequencing today
- explain the methods used for DNA sequencing, including the illumina method of rapid sequencing and the shotgun sequencing ...
In this activity, students have some sections of DNA code and need to work out what the coloured bases are to identify animals. Curriculum links include:
- DNA base pairing
- DNA variation between species
This Problem Solving with Industry module was devised by the Centre for Science Education in collaboration with Yorkshire Water. In this module students study the problem of blue-green algae in an upland reservoir.

In this activity students consider the questions: Where does rain water go? How can we model the flow of rainwater in real life? What can be done to prevent flooding? When is rain dangerous? Where do floods come from? How can we reduce the damage that flooding causes? Over the last decade some parts of Europe have...
