In this activity, students are asked to make a bioreactor containing an immobilised enzyme and use it to produce lactose reduced milk. They then assess the effect that temperature has on the enzyme driven reaction within the bioreactor. 

This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts for teaching about genomes at A level. Curriculum links include genetic sequencing, DNA profiling, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), electrophoresis

In this demonstration of a displacement reaction, a piece of foil in the shape of a Christmas tree is placed in lead nitrate solution. Within a few minutes the tree becomes covered with sparkling crystals of lead.

This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts for acids and redox reactions at A level. Curriculum links include acids, redox, titration, calculations, oxidation, reduction, and formulae.

Produced by Becta, these case studies illustrate how information communication technology (ICT) can be used to enhance teaching and learning in science. This case study looks at how two schools enabled students to observe reactions too hazardous to perform in the classroom. One activity was a video and animation of...
