This podcast from the Planet Earth Online collection and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) looks at how the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland gave scientists an unparalleled opportunity for research, and why sediment from rivers like the Thames can act like time machines to bygone...

This resource explores what volcanoes are and some of their key features. Students will learn why volcanoes erupt and the difference between effusive and explosive eruptions as well as understanding the effects magma viscosity can have on lava flows and eruptions by conducting experiments to test the impact of...

This Catalyst article describes how the distribution of volcanoes across the Earth’s surface tells scientists about the underlying pattern of tectonic plates. Much can been learned about volcanoes by observing them from orbiting spacecraft.

In this resource students find the volume of a variety of cuboids in real life contexts.

The resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.

The coordinates of the vertices of a tetrahedron is given. The challenge is to work out the volume of the tetrahedron. This involves calculating the area of the base,...

This collection of interactive excel sheets investigate volumes of revolution by integration.

The first sheet plots the function y= ax^2...

WEAR asks us to investigate the issues of the fashion industry. Are we too wasteful, throwing clothes away once they've been worn a few times? Do we care who's making our clothing and how much they're being paid? How does our clothing represent who we are and what we have to say?

What if we could all...
