Published by the Wellcome Trust in 1997, this book provides challenging ways of incorporating scientific information into social situations. Teachers' notes complement the student activity sheets in a series of real-life scenarios.
...This comprehension activity, aimed at students aged 11-14, looks at the role of the immune system in protecting us from infectious disease, and how it recognises the difference between the body (‘self’) and invader. This worksheet is part of a collection of materials based on...
Aimed at students aged 11-14, this worksheet explores the causes of different illnesses, focusing on the contribution that DNA makes. The questions explore the role of DNA in health and how genes play a role in causing single-gene disorders and multifactorial conditions. The resource is part of a collection of...
This hands-on activity, aimed at students aged 11-14, will help students to understand how pathogens can make you ill. After a short role play activity, students answer the questions on the worksheet. This worksheet is part of a collection of materials based on...
Published by the Nuffield Foundation, each chapter of a Nuffield Advanced Biology laboratory guide provided a coherent treatment of a series of biological topics based on practical investigations. Although the chapters were arranged in a logical order this was not...
Following a EU rule change, the growing of GM crops across Europe will increase in many countries. It looks likely that GM foods such as breakfast cereals may be on our supermarket shelves within a year - but will many people choose them over GM-free alternatives? In this activity students apply their knowledge...
Published by the Nuffield Foundation, the purpose of this Nuffield Advanced Biology Laboratory Guide was to provide a coherent treatment of a series of biological topics, based on laboratory investigations. The approach throughout was centered on enquiry as opposed to...
This is a competitive game which tests children’s knowledge of bones, joints and their function. The teacher reads out a statement related to a bone or joint, and children cross off the answer if they have it. This resource was produced by Genetic Disorders UK, which provides schools with a host of free resources...
This resource provides background information for students about the structure of DNA, DNA replication, genetic engineering, cloning, genetic testing and DNA fingerprinting.
The activities for students include a practical activity where students extract their own DNA from cheek epithelial cells or plant...
As human-to-human transplantation has become more and more successful, it has almost become a victim of its own success. There is a shortage of donor organs...
Di-deoxy sequencing is a way to determine the order of bases (A,C,G and T) in a piece of DNA. A set of 4 lanes (one for each base) is needed to sequence any given piece of DNA. Wherever a black band appears in a particular lane...
This animation shows how bacteria exchange genes on small pieces of DNA called plasmids through a process called horizontal gene transfer.
Bacteria are able to exchange genes quickly within a population on small circles of DNA called plasmids. This animation shows how bacteria exchange plasmids through a...
From the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, this resource introduces the Human Genome Project (HGP).
A short animation gives:
* an introduction to DNA and genomes;
* an overview of which countries were involved in the international Human Genome Project;
* a description of the processes,...
This resource from Ofsted contains generic grade descriptors and supplementary subject-specific guidance in mathematics, drawn from the leadership and management section of the evaluation schedule for the inspection of schools and academies, January 2012. It is intended only to inform the judgements made by...
