Planning for Unit 2: Practical Scientific Procedures & Techniques

(0)
This is a lab book for unit 2 that will help students greatly once assignments are issued. Students can record their results in here during/after the practicals, either handwritten on a printed version or typed on an online copy. This saves loads of time with planning lessons :-) I hope that you find it helpful.

NEW L3 Applied Science Unit 19 - PRACTICAL - nitrate from soil UV spectroscopy

(3)
Attached is a full lesson 5 page worksheet containing a detailed step-by-step method (including how to use the UV-vis), introduction including theory on Beer’s Law, space for students to tabulate and record their results, questions around the topic, answers and sample results. There are a couple of photographs (taken by me when I was trialling this) to help students visualise how things should look when they are carrying out the method. This can take around 1 hour - 2.5 hour lesson depending on equipment availability and how you wish to deliver it. :-) Please leave a review!

BTEC L3 Applied Science: Introduction to Unit 7 Contemporary Scientific Issues

(3)
Attached is a full introductory lesson created for the new BTEC Unit 7: Contemporary Scientific Issues. It is activity based, with instructions and answers, a recent case study to get students started, points for discussion, a video on the case study, explanation of terms ethical, environmental, social and economic along with reliability and validity. Gets students thinking about reliability of sources, bias, etc. Homeworks during the first few months of teaching (and tutorial sessions, if you have these) could include watching documentaries on scientific issues to broaden student’s knowledge of contemporary issues in general. You may wish to select these yourself (from Netflix, Youtube etc.) or ask the students to find 1 each for homework and bring to next lesson (to minimise your workload!) then you can decide which to watch as a class and use as a point for discussion etc. Link to video introducing Unit 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMFkvxYIVfU

Unit 7 contemporary issues - full 2x double lesson

(0)
Attached is 2 double lessons (4 hours) worth of activities, lesson is interactive, student-led, exam-focused. Prior to this, students should choose a contemporary scientific issue of their choice - this can be from a magazine eg New Scientist or Chemistry Review etc. or from online. They can produce a little written piece introducing this if you wish them to. The teacher can then go through the PowerPoint regarding part B of the exam -this PowerPoint explains the structure of part B of the exam and describes what to include and how to structure your answers in order to achieve high marks. In some cases, ideas of how to start answers are given. Students should answer each of the questions (except the last one) for THEIR chosen contemporary issue (see peer assessment form for how to do this in presentation style. This can be done in a presentation format and communicated to the class, during the presentation, the presenter will be assessed by their classmates using the peer-assessment form attached. Many skills are addressed in this lesson(s), such as communication, critical thinking, analysis, detecting bias, independent research, ability to give and receive constructive criticism, drawing valid conclusions, making sensible judgements, simplifying complex issues and interpreting graphical and statistical data etc. Link to video introducing Unit 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMFkvxYIVfU

AS Revision Board Game

(0)
AS Module 2 Revision Board Game on bonding, structure, properties, shape, electronegativity and polarity. Students really enjoyed playing this game and it was an excellent way to revise. Teacher will need: scissors, printer, card or a laminator (so the playing cards last), counters (1 per student), dice (1 per group). Included: cards for 1, 2 and 3 point questions with Qs and As blank versions of cards for 1, 2 and 3 point questions so you can adapt/write your own board game About: This is a learner-led revision activity. Recommended group size per board game: 4 Estimated time to complete game based on this group size: 50min - 1 hour (based on experience and length of student engagement). Game can be any length of time as winning is based on number of points rather than reaching the end of the board. Rules: Class to be split into roughly groups of 4 Each group to be given 1 board game mat, 4 counters, 1 dice and a set of 1, 2 and 3 point Q cards. They also need scrap paper and pens/pencils for working out Each group can either nominate a reader for the Q cards or they may take it in turns to read. #bondingstructureproperties #ASChemistryrevisiongame #Chemistryrevision #VSEPRrevision
