Student Set up

 The student set up. A good faster computer i7 with 32Gb RAM, a large disk, a Wacom Tablet screen with Pen, and a monitor. A couple of calculators, one graphic, the other a standard calculator, and access to hundreds of experiments and scientific equipment.

Electrolysis

 Electrolysis is a complex subject, and it is important to understand working out which substance will appear at which electrode and why. Relating reactivity series and electronegativity to real-world examples.

Wireless pH Sensor

The @pascoscientific wireless pH sensor is great for both Biology and chemistry. The sensor can easily be used out in the field measuring river samples connected to an iPad with Sparkvue.
 

Careless Work

 Long gone are the days of penalising careless and untidy work - until you get into business.

Wave speed

Determining the velocity of waves in a ripple tank using a phone to capture the wavelength and the videoing in slow-mo with a clock timer in the background to determine the number of waves passing a point per second.

 

Life Size Wooly Gut

Looking at the gut makes the students squeamish, but playing with the life-sized knitted woolly gut is fun, and they're amazed at the diameter and length of the small intestines.

 

Moments made easy

 Moments made easy using Balance Me from Phet. So many useful simulations for the students to learn with.
