The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the impact of science, technology, engineering and mathematics on the development of stealth vehicles.

Welsh versions of the guidance documents are included.

Students will understand the concept of steganography and will create a bitmap image. They will explore colour depth and know how to convert a custom image to binary. They will be able to decode binary images and use pattern recognition to identify abnormal data.

These resources are set in the context of the...

A CS Unplugged series resource aimed at younger students but also works well with A level students. The document contains student activities covering constructing Steiner trees, greedy algorithms and solving traversal problems.

In these two activities, from the Royal Observatory Greenwich, students use bearings to plot constellations. They are then asked to think about what they represent.

The Higher Level file has more complex...

We know that sometimes it can be difficult to visualise what STEM Ambassadors actually do.

Even after speaking to colleagues who are old hands at delivering activities, questions can still remain. Why do I need to meet the teacher first? What if the students are bored? How do I make it relevant? Where do I...

Produced by the new economics foundation (nef), this resource contains activities that help students to discuss and understand stem cell research. The materials contain teacher guidance, student information and a range of activities that promote discussion and debate.

Students use the materials to learn...

Produced in 2015, these resources look at research involving the use of nanoparticles and fluorescent proteins to track transplanted stem cells in living organisms.

They can be used to tackle a range of topics in post...

This excel workbook shows how to construct a stem and leaf diagram. The first sheet has some raw data at the top and a blank stem and leaf diagram with appropriate key is shown below. The cells in the stem and leaf diagram can be revealed or hidden and by clicking on...

Spinal cord injuries can have devastating consequences because damage to the spinal cord inhibits or even prevents impulses being carried between the central and peripheral nervous system.

In this activity students...

This set of mathematics resources, from National Strategies, aims to help teachers plan and provide teaching and learning that will ensure children progress through the National Curriculum levels over Key Stages One and Two.

These include the Overcoming the barriers, Securing levels, Assessment and...

This activity aimed at primary learners looks at the properties and uses of materials focussing on aluminium and steel. Children find out more about these two materials and how they differ and learn about how much energy can be saved if these materials are recycled. They then design two cartoon characters; Alice...

An overview of the pilot Stimulating Physics Programme, funded by HEFCE from 2006-2009 and led by the Institute of Physics.

The Institute of Physics worked with the  Career Development Organisation to produce activities aimed at improving students' attitude towards physics, and awareness of career routes.

The project developed two packs for use in schools with the help of the...
