A set of resources exploring the effects of different factors on rates of reaction, the reasons why these affect reaction rates and predicting how rate graphs will vary if controlled variables are allowed to vary.<br /> <br /> As is probably evident from the first slide, the lesson was written for a lesson done as part of an interview - there's probably enough stuff here for two lessons as we only manged the first activity in the allotted 50 mins. <br /> <br /> I assume the resources have some merit as I got the job!

Covers primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure, and the forces involved in their formation.<br /> <br /> Let us not dwell on how many hours of my half term these resources took to put together: let us merely contemplate my joy when Sunday night's storm meant the trains stopped running and I had to phone in cover, so by the next time I see the class they&amp;'ll have done it all out of the textbook. Oh deep, deep joy!<br /> <br /> Still, someone ought to get the use of these resources...

I use this resource with IB Biology and OCR A-level students. Spearman's Rank Correlation coefficient is not required for either specification: HOWEVER IB students may find this useful for the data processing and evaluation requirements on their internal assessments, whilst OCR students have been asked to calculate Spearman's coefficient as part of their PSA, so prior familiarity with the test may help them.

A lesson on flower structure, function of the parts, differences in adaptation of wind- and insect-pollinated flowers.<br /> <br /> Unfortunately, the video of a wind-pollinated flower shaking in the wind was too large to upload. (There should be a hyperlink to this in the Power point) If I can find a way of cutting it down, I'll upload it later.

Power point gives instructions for a practical investigation into the effects of sweating.<br /> <br /> The first worksheet contains a follow-up data analysis exercise.
