The Institute of Physics' 'MODEL Project: Practical Physics at Work' provides engaging and relevant practical physics activities, student instructions and worksheets plus guidance for teacher and technicians.
The practical activities are supported by video sequences showing how some people use physics in the...
Monkey and Hunter
From the National STEM Learning Centre, this short video illustrates the effect of gravity on a projectile's motion by using a classic physics demonstration called the Monkey and the Hunter. If a hunter fires horizontally at a monkey in a tree, and simultaneously the monkey releases their grip to fall off the tree...
Motion 11-14
From the Institute of Physics, this resource provides extensive teacher guidance and suggested classroom activities to support the teaching of: * Speed * Resultant force zero predicts constant speed * Resultant non-zero - changes in speed Each topic is explored from the following perspectives: • The physics...
New Degree - Integrated Sciences
The Stimulating Physics Network worked with the Universities of Leicester, London South Bank, Surrey and East Anglia to develop a new interdisciplinary degree course.
Two video clips introduce the course, presented by Professor Derek Raine at Leicester and Professor Jim Al-Khalili at Surrey. The third...
Opening Doors is co-funded by the IOP and Government Equalities Office, running from 2014 to 2015. The project is not specific to physics, or even science, but focuses on developing a whole-school approach to addressing gender imbalance.
The project has involved two regional networks, each made up of five...
