The lesson is guided by a presentation which introduces the symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS) and describes the application of stem cells in the treatment of disease. Students work in groups to compare images of healthy and MS nerve cells before planning and carrying out a model drug testing investigation.

In this Core Maths research task students area asked to apply their understanding of the surface area and volume of cuboids to cells. The activity starts with an NRICH problem which explores what happens to surface area and volume of cuboids as linear dimensions change.  Students are then to investigate the surface...

This toolkit explores the census and its significance in understanding population dynamics. Students can use the Census maps tool, Build a custom area profile tool and access raw data from the census. They can:

• discover how statistical inferences are made about populations
• compare different...

In this Core Maths activity students are invited to play a game using non-transitive dice, and explore the probability behind them.
