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 ICT was used to enhance the learning of a hearing-impaired student and increase engagement of students in the class. It...

The Interdependence sub-collection is made up of pedagogical guidance and classroom materials for use with students. All materials were published by the Key Stage Three Strategy and the Secondary Strategy between 2002 and 2009.

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Recall that an ecosystem is made up of a community of organisms interacting with the environment in which they live.
• Recall that the community of organisms in an ecosystem depends...
