KS4 Biology - Infested by lice

KS4 Biology - Infested by lice

(0)
This film is from the series Infested! Living with parasites available on BBC Teach. PLEASE NOTE: THIS SHORT FILM CONTAINS DISTURBING SCENES AND TEACHER REVIEW IS RECOMMENDED PRIOR TO USE IN CLASS. In this short film Dr Michael Mosley visits a ‘delousing salon’ in London to collect live head lice. Delousing salons use a vacuum cleaner with a special attachment to collect the ten to twenty lice that an infected person typically has. Michael Mosley infects himself and visits the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. Here, he looks at the lice sucking his blood using a handheld microscope. The speed of the lice moving over his arms is amazing. The co-evolution of these organisms with humans is also described. Teacher Notes This short film could provide an interesting introduction to the topic of parasitism (and mutualism). This could lead to studying the effects of parasites on humans or other organisms (including plants). This could also introduce the topic of co-evolution (humans and body lice). Curriculum Notes This short film is suitable for teaching biology at KS4/GCSE in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and National 4/5 in Scotland.

KS3 / KS4 Design & Technology and Chemistry - Nano-bubbles and drug delivery
BBCTeachBBCTeach

KS3 / KS4 Design & Technology and Chemistry - Nano-bubbles and drug delivery

(0)
This film is from the series The Imagineers available on BBC Teach. Fran Scott meets Dr Eleanor Stride from the University of Oxford who is working on using nano-bubbles to deliver drugs to specific parts of the human body. Dr Stride explains that cancer drugs are poisonous and have many side effects. Her research uses microscopic bubbles of gas coated with a special shell containing these drugs which are then injected into the patient’s blood. More than half of the drugs we develop are too poisonous to work. Using nano-bubbles means a much smaller dose is required and so this technology may allow us to use more drugs in the future. Teacher Notes This clip could be shown as an example of how a basic product (chemotherapy drugs) can undergo significant change through concentrating on one aspect (in this case, delivery). As a class, discuss the basic brief and its aims. Students should see that the chosen solution, involving use of magnets and ultrasound, is not dictated by the brief, but is just one way of answering it. A practical exercise could then be carried out, based on a delivery system for a fragile object. In groups, students could invent systems that will transport eggs from one side of the class to the other, leaving the contents (without shell) in a bowl, ready for use. When the egg is broken, how the shell is separated, and how automated the system is, is up to them. Curriculum Notes This clip will be relevant for teaching Design & Technology and Chemistry at KS3 and GCSE in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 3rd and 4th Level in Scotland.

KS1 and KS2 Geography: North of England and North of Australia

(0)
This film is from the series Your World available on BBC Teach. A lively exploration of two children’s lives on opposite sides of the world. Talia, 9, from Mossley, Greater Manchester tells us what it’s like to live in a town that experiences all weather types but where the weather is generally quite mild. She explains that what she likes to do depends on what it’s like outside: playing the piano when it rains and having snowball fights when it snows. In contrast, Khynaan, 9, from Townsville, Australia, goes to the beach on Christmas day and wears sunscreen all year round. During cyclone season, his family takes various precautions, taping up the windows and staying inside. Talia’s family also have to take weather related precautions, using pots and pan to catch the water coming through a leaky roof. As well as the weather, we learn what it’s like to live where they do and how it affects their aspirations, their hobbies, the food they eat, the wildlife they encounter and why, for very different reasons, they both want to stay living in the same place when they’re older. Together they illustrate the cultural and geographical differences and similarities of these two distinct places. The purpose of BBC’s content is to inform, educate and entertain.

We see archive footage of the millions of British women who entered the workforce during World War One, taking part in a social revolution by making munitions and replacing absent men in their jobs. We hear about the huge demand for workers to make the munitions being rapidly used up in this new industrial war. When David Lloyd George became Minister for Munitions in May 1915, he decided to recruit huge numbers of women to make up the shortfall.

This video demonstrates the GCSE Biology and Combined Science required practical to investigate osmosis in plant tissue, included in both AQA and Edexcel specifications. Osmosis is a challenging concept, and this investigation is also challenging in terms of the manipulation, organisation and number of practical skills needed. This video helps to ensure the concept itself is understood as well as how to generate and interpret the data collected. The purpose of BBC’s content is to inform, educate and entertain.

KS3 / KS4 English Literature - Shakespeare's sources and influences

(0)
This film is from the series Shakespeare Themes available on BBC Teach. An exploration of the sources and influences in Shakespeare’s plays. Shakespeare pulled in influences from many sources. In Julius Caesar he borrows phrases and words from other writers. In Macbeth we find him using his knowledge of the Bible as a reference. While in Romeo and Juliet he uses elements of nature to reflect emotion. Teacher Notes This film could be used to look in more detail at what influenced Shakespeare’s writing and the influence his work has had on others. Students could take one of his plays and find examples of influences and sources in his storytelling process. Students could explore the different kinds of sources Shakespeare takes inspiration from and how best to stage his plays when trying to add the influence of modern society. Curriculum Notes This clip will be relevant for teaching English Literature at KS3 and KS4/GCSE in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Also 3rd and 4th level in Scotland.
