Factors of Production

Factors of Production

(0)
This gorgeous introduction to the factors of production shows you in detail how Economics divides Labour, Land, Capital & Enterprise. The video shows the factors of production in a quite nostalgic way, which my students really enjoyed spotting the references to. (If you have a bell or buzzer you can make it even more fun!)

Binary for Computer Science and Maths

This lesson can be taught at Key Stage 3 or in Key Stage 4 computer Science. It is also a good refresher of the basics for A-level students. The presentation guides you through all of the key content and includes answers. You also gain a Spreadsheet that enables you to make tables and new questions very quickly as well as an investigation and links to a variety of binary games.

This lesson was originally taught in a customer services unit, but would be great to prepare students for work experience or as part of any vocational course.
Famous and Disabled (Lesson 1 of 3)

Famous and Disabled (Lesson 1 of 3)

This lesson was originally made for a citizenship lesson to encourage students to think about disabilities and their prejudices. It was done as a classroom lesson, but could easily be adapted for use in assembly. I hope it is useful. It has now been updated with answers.
Guide to animating characters in PowerPoint

Guide to animating characters in PowerPoint

(7)
This shows how easy it is to animate images in PowerPoint taking away much of the difficulty that animators would have had in the past. (The Movie is supposed to be silent, because not all my PCs have headphones.) Also in Office 2010 you can record a narration and save it out as a video. This could then be uploaded to a video site or shared with children at a local primary school. (For older versions of office you could use Camstudio to record the video.)
