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 (...

In this lesson, pupils will focus on the Anderton boat lift, which was restored by a multi-company collaboration including...
In this activity from the IET, pupils learn about conductors and insulators of electricity, ionic and covalent bonds, as well as closed circuits, whilst creating their own playdough electrical circuits. The resource also includes a wordsearch to reinforce vocabulary and support assessment of understanding.
This is one of a series of resources designed to allow learners to use the theme of the men’s football World Cup to develop their knowledge and skills in design and technology and engineering. This resource focuses on making and testing a moisture sensor that referees can use to check the playability of the pitch...
In this activity pupils will make use of the theme of football on the Moon to make an experiment of terrarium, so that grass can be grown for a lunar football game. This theme can be used to support discussion around the engineering challenges for travelling and potentially living on the Moon, such as how will we...
This is one of a series of resources from the IET designed around the theme of the future of flight with the purpose of developing pupils knowledge and skills in engineering and mathematics. This activity explores water-powered ‘hero’ rotary engines, which convert water pressure to rotary motion. Devices of this...
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Build simple circuits from pictures or demonstrations.
- Identify components from their circuit symbols, and draw the circuit symbol for common components.
- Identify...
This lesson aimed at upper primary links to aspects of sound, electricity and design and technology. Looking at how we use technology to communicate with each other, children think about how telephones work, from string-can phones to modern mobile devices. Provided with different scenarios children decide on which...
The National STEM Learning Centre and Network supports the teaching and learning of science, design and technology, computing, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education in schools and colleges throughout the United Kingdom, from primary level to post-16.
...'Not everyone has good eyesight. Many of us need spectacles or contact lenses to improve our vision. A lot of science goes into making sure people get the right spectacles to suit their needs.' These practicals and videos use a workplace context to help students to develop their understanding of the electromagnetic...
