Nuffield Pathways Through Science was reorganised to match the new NEAB Modular Science specifications following the 1995 revisions to the National Curriculum. Much of the content of the programme was unchanged but the modules were cut to 12 and the materials...

The Nuffield Science Teaching Project began in 1962. One of the first problems tackled by the project was the teaching of O-level biology, chemistry and physics. Nuffield Physics was planned as a five-year programme up...

This pack of Nuffield Physics activity sheets was designed to match the National Curriculum Science: Physics at Key stage Four from 1996. The ideas were drawn from materials produced by various Nuffield projects over the previous ten years. The pack includes student sheets for 97 different activities.

This Nuffield Physics Background Book on astronomy uses a narrative to guide the reader through the development of theory in astronomy, from early ideas and Greek astronomy, through to the work of Kepler and Newton. Many hand-drawn diagrams are used to illustrate the concepts and suggestions for student activities...

In addition to the general introduction to the course in Teachers’ Guides I and III, the Nuffield Physics project produced two volumes of general guidance. One is about all the apparatus to be used in the course. The other is about tests and examinations both during the course and at the end.

Nuffield Physics placed great emphasis on practical work by students. The projects devised many new approaches to practical work and introduced a wide range of new apparatus to schools. To help teachers, technicians and suppliers, the project published a detailed guide to all the apparatus needed for the course....

This Nuffield Physics Guide to Experiments was designed to supplement Teachers' Guide III by giving details of the class experiments and demonstrations to be done during the third year of the Nuffield O-level physics programme.

A special feature of the guides was the very clear, three-dimensional diagrams of...

This Nuffield Physics Guide to Experiments was designed to supplement Teachers' Guide IV by giving details of the class experiments and demonstrations to be done during the fourth year of the Nuffield O-level physics programme. A special feature of the guides was the very clear, three-dimensional diagrams of the...

This Nuffield Physics Guide to Experiments was designed to supplement Teachers' Guide V by giving details of the class experiments and demonstrations to be done during the fifth year of the Nuffield O-level physics programme. A special feature of the guides was the very clear, three-dimensional diagrams of the...

Published by the Nuffield Foundation, ‘Molecules and Motion’ was originally written to provide an extended look at one of the central topics of Year Five of the Nuffield Physics course. It was also recommended as supplementary reading for the Unit on...

This Nuffield Physics booklet was intended to accompany the work on Optics in Year III of the Nuffield Physics course. The booklet was intended as a companion to the ray-streaks experiments. The first section of the booklet, entitled 'Seeing', covers briefly a...

In Nuffield Physics, constructive problems or questions that ask for active thinking largely took the place of pupils' reading in texts or background books. The purpose and nature of these questions was explained in chapter 1 of Nuffield Physics Tests and Examinations...

Some students were expected to start the Nuffield Physics course in the third year and so Teachers’ Guide III starts with the same General Introductions that was included in Teachers’ Guide I. This was followed by general and specific guidance about the third year of the course. The course for this year was...
