This poster shows how the electromagnetic spectrum has been divided into seven ‘types’ according to use, with a look at how the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) uses it in high precision measurement.

This video revises the order of electromagnetic spectrum (GCSE) and introduces the range of magnitudes of wavelengths and corresponding frequencies for each type of electromagnetic radiation.

This video helps students to visualise the electric and magnetic field components of an electromagnetic wave.

The electric and magnetic oscillations (vibrations) are at 90⁰ to each other and also to the direction of energy propagation. 

This Nuffield Working with Science unit aimed to enable students to design circuits to meet specific needs. The plan was also to help students to realise the range of electronics problems which they can solve by taking a systems approach.

Electronics and A.C. 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 association...

This program deals with various aspects of the coordinate geometry of an ellipse. The first two sheets show the connection between ellipse and the auxiliary circle and also the focus/directrix definition of the ellipse. Subsequent sheets trace an interesting loci...

Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

This presentation uses the fact that 1729 is the smallest number that can be expressed as two cubes in two different ways to introduce the topic of Elliptic curves, which are used more and more in the field of number theory...
