In this lesson, students will be introduced to the advantages of big telescopes and the use of telescopes to do astronomy across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. They will then explore the transit method of detecting exoplanets (either practically, or using real astronomical data) and use mathematics to...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Recognise that energy is conserved during an exothermic reaction.
• Describe how the temperature of the chemicals will change with time after an exothermic reaction.

In this ASE SYCD: Science Year Primary resource, Holidays on the Moon! Universal Tours Limited wants sales executives to develop extra-terrestrial trips for tourists. 

The ‘Experimenting with Industry’ series was published in the mid-1980s when it presented industry-related science practicals for schools. It was developed as part of a 'teachers into industry' project organised by The Association for Science Education (ASE) on behalf...

In this video independent and dependent variables are discussed, before experimenting with a trolley on an inclined ramp. The data is then graphed and analysed to investigate any relationship between ramp height and trolley speed. This is a GCSE Physics Practical.

A song that chants ‘experiments are how we test theories’. 

There are teacher notes and student materials which describe the research into the potential effects of climate change on a Coralline algae species. Curriculum links include biodiversity, sampling techniques, student t test, Simpson’s Index, photosynthesis, climate...

This Core Maths PowerPoint presentation contains five experiments involving marbles that explore a range of topics including listing outcomes, tree diagrams and the multiplicative and additive properties of probability.

Basic primary maths topics from the late 1960s.
