A Catalyst article about ice cores from Antarctica which contain air bubbles which record the changing atmosphere. The Antarctic ice sheet is over 3 kilometres thick; ice cores enable scientists to sample each year of snow fall in sequence. This evidence is vital in understanding how the climate is changing. The...

This Catalyst article is a career interview with aerospace research engineer, and BBC Bake-Off finalist, Andrew Smyth.

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of angle, from identifying right angles to working with bearings.

Angle pack one contains eight work cards with a wide variety of activities covering...

Connect 4: this activity requires students to choose a diagram and use their knowledge of angle facts to find the size of the desired angle. Player one answers their question then finds, and shades in with one colour, the answer on the answer grid. Player two then takes their turn, shading their answer using a...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of angle properties, from investigating the sum of the angles in a triangle to calculating the size of angles in a circle, and a separate booklet of geometric facts.

...

This investigation covers two circles theorems through one demonstration. The theorems are:

• That the angles on the same arc forming a chord are equal

• That the angle at the centre is twice the angle at the arc when drawn from the same chord

The initial...

This resource consists of 22 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, requiring students to: * know the names of different kinds of angles * demonstrate the use of angles using physical activities * explore the angles associated with...

This resource consists of two interactive excel programs. The first deals with basic angle facts and recognition of types of triangle. Depending on how it is used, the second could require the use of Pythagoras' Theorem and trigonometry. The second excel file could also be used to provides problems relating to the...

This worksheet challenges students to answer a series of questions themed around angles and trigonometry. It provides worked examples, examiners top tips and answers to each question. The resource is useful for teaching maths content in design and technology, or as a maths activity sheet.

These books, from the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB), aimed to encourage the use of more practical work on animal and human behaviour and to enable students to develop an understanding of some basic principles of animal behaviour, relevant to biology and psychology.

Although originally...

This scientific literacy activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), looks at the use of radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology, investigating extensions to the use of such technology in various contexts.

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

In this SATIS Revisited resource, students consider the ethical questions that arise from the conflicts between concern for animal welfare and the need to use animals in medical research.

The aim is to introduce the idea that the discussion of controversial issues relating to the conduct and application of...

Produced by Understanding Animal Research, this information leaflet looks at examples of how animal research has led to the understanding of medical conditions and the development of new therapies.

Animal research has been important in the development of many major medical advances. Studies that use animals...
