This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts for teaching about mechanical properties of materials at A level. Curriculum links include elastic and plastic deformation, the behaviour and structure of materials, Hooke's law and the Young modulus.
Although produced to support the...
In this investigation students use a mass of plasticine on top of a hacksaw blade to see how the mass of the plasticine affects the resonance frequency that the...
Mechanics and Properties of Matter is one of the titles in the series of ASE Lab Books that were published in the early 1970s for the Association for Science Education. Each title brought together the best of the teaching notes and experimental ideas from members of the...
From the Centre for Science Education, the RA3 project aims to bring parents together with their children and teachers to explore the worlds of science and technology.
These activities use 'mechanical kangaroo' or 'mechanical horse' model robot kits. These kits allow children and parents to explore...
Mechathlon, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about engineering. The context for this case study is designing a multipurpose vehicle which could aid recovery following a devastating...
Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the S unit called ‘Particles at work’. This D unit provided enough material for eight double periods during a Further Science course and built on the content of the S units for Single Science. The teachers’ guide...
Produced by Understanding Animal Research, this information booklet contains extensive information on the medical advances that have been made possible, at least in part, due to animal research. The sections look at developments including:
* cancer therapy;
* HIV treatments;
* vaccination;...
In this activity, students investigate the uses of materials and fabrics in medical applications, such as pressure bandages for burns injuries and anti-embolism stockings for deep vein thrombosis. The students make their own pressure sensor using different types of fabric. They then calibrate their sensor and...
A Catalyst article about microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet and X-rays which are all electromagnetic waves. The article looks at their different uses and why some are used to create medical images and others to treat disease. The article also explores how the electromagnetic spectrum is used by medical physicists to...
This text, produced by both the Institute of Physics (IOP) and the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), gives information on the development and uses of medical physics.
The book covers a wide range of topics and includes chapters on:
* history
* ionising radiation
*...
The Institute of Physics's Medical Physics Group has produced a set of teaching materials which can be used to teach medical physics at GCSE/Standard level in schools. Much of the material is appropriate to use for A-level medical physics options.
The Institute's Teaching Medical Physics resources, that...
From the Institute of Physics (IOP) and the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), these posters illustrate the uses of physics in medicine. The posters cover a range of topics, including:...
