Success in Science

Average Rating4.16
(based on 57 reviews)

Science has been and always will be a passion of mine. As a successful science teacher and faculty leader it is my duty to make science accessible and fun for all, increasing prosperity and success within the science industry at a time where we need it most. These resources are aimed at changing the standard pedagogical approach to teaching and put a new modern touch to delivering science lessons through eye catching yet relevant imagery and questioning to allow independent exploration.

Mr_A_LevelMr_A_Level

11.2 The Light-Dependent Reaction

(0)
This resource guides a-level biologists carefully through the intricate process of the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis. The chemiosmotic theory of how ATP is synthesised in the thylakoid is explored by carefully explaining the importance of photolysis in this reaction. Understanding how this ends up with the products of oxygen, NADPH and ATP prepares students for the next stage of photosynthesis, the light-independent reaction. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout alongside carefully selected visuals.

Mr_A_LevelMr_A_Level

7.8 Transport of Organic Substances in the Phloem

(0)
This resource guides a-level biologists through the mechanism of translocation and how sucrose is moved under mass transport from source to sink. The mass flow theory is broken down into three digestible and understandable steps before exploring the evidence for and against. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout alongside carefully selected visuals.

Mr_A_LevelMr_A_Level

7.7 Transport of Water in the Xylem

(0)
This resource guides a-level biologists through the movement of water through a plant via the xylem in a process called transpiration. The role of the stomata is explored before diving into the movement of water through the xylem inlcuding the cohesion-tension theory. Stretch, challenge and lateral thinking questions are embedded throughout alongside carefully selected visuals.
