The environmental impact of a product throughout the different stages of its lifecycle are quantified in this activity. Data from the Eco-indicator 99 Manual for Designers is required for the final evaluation task.
A series of images representing double helix images.
- DNA double helix and sequencing output: molecular model of a DNA double helix showing the individual atoms (apart from hydrogen) as coloured balls. Carbon atoms are in white, oxygen in red, phosporus in purple and nitrogen in blue....
A Catalyst article about the fruit fly which has played a succession of key roles in developments in biological science over the last 100 years as a laboratory subject in genetics.
Researchers have found that many aspects of the biochemistry of fruit flies and humans are similar. It is due to the fact that...
This Mathematics Matters case study, from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, discusses the importance of statistics and computing to developments in medical research. Sequencing the human genome was a fantastic achievement, but it was only the beginning. Now, statisticians are coming up with new...
In this cluster of articles, students investigate aspects of plant biology and behaviour including chloroplast genes and how they have helped biologists understand plant evolution; how plants monitor the intensity, direction, colour and duration of the light they receive and if attacked by herbivores or pathogens...
The videos in this collection from Teachers TV are aimed at secondary school science practitioners. They provide great lesson ideas for a range of topics, including:
* using demonstrations in biology, chemistry and physics
* dataloggers and ICT to help students understand processes
* forces,...
This part of the TRUMP Astrophysics resource package dealt with historical and modern observations of planets and their orbital motions. Like all other parts of the TRUMP package, this part contains study notes (self-study material for teachers), teaching notes and...
This is a very comprehensive resource from the University of Cambridge detailing the main functions of generic operating systems. It could be used as a reference or basis for a comprehension question sheet or preparing model answers for examination questions. Students will also see links with other topics such as...
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...
Published in September 2010, this summary of an online survey looks at design and technology (D&T) teachers’ attitudes towards CPD.
The full collection of STEM Learning impact and evaluation research reports can be viewed here.
The ‘development’ section of the Fixpert's resource focuses on creating and testing a prototype for an outcome that meets their fix partner’s needs. Students build critical skills through evaluation and they practice design decision making that balances design ideas against user needs. Activities include a focus on...
Published in March 2013, this report from Babcock Research focusses on the qualitative and quantitative impact the Science Learning Centre has on CPD for technicians.
The full collection of STEM Learning impact and evaluation research reports can be viewed...
Published in September 2010, this summary of an online survey focusses on attempting to understand the factors relating to the retention of science teachers.
The full collection of STEM Learning impact and evaluation research reports can be viewed here...
Produced by Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme, this activity sees students delivering a presentation that they have prepared. This practices the delivery of presentations but also forms part of a guided evaluation exercise. The activity provides opportunities for students to: • deliver a presentation and...
The Citizen Science project was a collaboration between @Bristol's Education team, the University of Bristol, teachers and scientists. Funded by the Wellcome Trust, a series of activities engage both teachers and students in discussions about biomedical science.
This collection contains a range of teacher...
