Science Active: This award winning site for Key Stages 3, 4 and 5 students is easy to navigate and has appropriate, accurate content. The emphasis is chemistry within the curriculum. Key stage 3 builds on the investigation work students see at KS 2 and explores solids, liquids and gases and changing states. Key Stage 4 has as its focus atomic structure and bonding. On line style lesson and downloadable multimedia features make this a complete package. Support materials for AS and A2 Chemistry are identified. Most usefully these are related to specific topic areas. In addition to this resources and download pages provide access to games, quizzes and other interactive learning experiences.
Chemistry for AS and A level: This website is written by a Chief Examiner from his teaching and examining experience. Hints and tips for exam technique; Learning to Learn; Reaction Catalogues for organic and inorganic chemistry; spectra; analytical reactions; worksheets; articles and comment on much-misunderstood Chemistry; biographies; and much more on the whole range of Chemistry. Rod Beavon is Head of Science at Westminster School, Chief Examiner in Chemistry for Edexcel Foundation, and author of several books on AS and A level chemistry for Nelson Thornes and Philip Allan.
Solar System in Action (Orrery): A concise tour of the solar system, and beyond. Orrery provides information and resources on all the major bodies in the solar system - from asteroids to venus. It also includes details and links relevant to the GCSE and A-level Physics courses, as well as reviews of software, books and videos of use to amateurs and educators alike. For teachers, pupils, parents - anyone - who has an interest in Astronomy.
EuroTurtle: "Sampling the Internet has been likened to drinking from a high pressure hose - lots of water but difficult to swallow!" Roger Poland and the Biology Department at King's College, Taunton have attempted to overcome this by producing this excellent interactive website that contains a wealth of information on the conservation and biology of sea turtles. There are overviews of all sea turtle species, sections on the threats to turtles in the Mediterranean, identification keys and an adventure game involving a loggerhead turtle trying to lay eggs on a popular Greek island frequented by tourists.
Interactive Learning Pages: John Ewart is Head of Department in IT in Milford Haven School in South West Wales. He designed this website primarily for teaching Science to less motivated KS4 pupils following a modular Science course. Later he developed the site to include lessons in ICT. The pages of the site follow a common design: a combination of text and graphic information with multiple choice questions or cloze exercises to assess the understanding of the information in the site.
Education Using PowerPoint: This website aims to make high quality education PowerPoint slideshows available to teachers (as a classroom tool) and students (as a revision tool). It features almost complete coverage of the GCSE Science double award course and the GCSE Physic course, including many diagrammatic explanations. Guaranteed to save teachers a lot of time!
