After investigating how photovoltaic cells are used and then making a series of electronic circuits of increasing complexity, students investigate some potential modifications to the circuits they have designed and made in the ‘Let there be light 2' activity.

This resource, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), involves investigating how photovoltaic cells are used and then using this technology to make a series of electronic circuits of increasing complexity. This could form the basis of a design and...

In this activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), students investigate the photovoltaic effect by manufacturing a simple circuit and integrating it into a product, in this case a version of the popular jitterbug project.

In this activity from the Institution of Engineering and technology (IET), students investigate the photovoltaic effect by designing and making a solar power night-light circuit. This could form the basis of a design and make assignment project in design and technology...

Scientists at the University of Oxford often use mathematical modelling as a key part of their research.  Modelling how information travels through social media sites is a part of understanding ways to analyse and potentially reduce the spread of misinformation.

These ASE resources illustrate an approach to investigations for students with specific, moderate or severe learning difficulties in a special school. The ideas described here are used to help individual students progress and can be applied to any mainstream or special...

From Practical Action, this resource encourages students to look at how design specifications are balanced when developing new products.

This collection of classroom presentations, student worksheets and student revision activities support the teaching of:

• types of motion (I.e. reciprocating, oscillating, linear, rotary)
• gears (I.e. bevel, idler, gear trains
• pulleys
• levers (I.e. first order, second order,...

This teacher guidance provides an overview of the Licence to Cook programme, setting out the structure of the course, describing how it could be delivered in schools and highlighting how the resources can be used to support food education for students. The guides for the cooking sessions and demonstrations offer...

This collection of resources looks at the Life Cycle Analysis of a mobile phone. Included in this resource are the student worksheets. teacher notes and a presentation.

Aimed at primary learners, this resource provides a lesson which looks at the life-cycles of plants and animals looking at several examples including human, frog and poppy. The main stages of development in each of these organisms are highlighted and the length of each...
