Football is all about the application of physics and hence is the perfect vehicle to improve understanding and so performance in both science and football. These free sessions are for disadvantaged and underrepresented and at-risk groups. It is ideal for those switched off science, but into football. The sessions are very practical and hands (feet)...

Physics is probably the most badly taught and misunderstood subject of all. It is usually delivered by non-specialists who lack the deep conceptual knowledge needed to create clarity in the minds of learners. Many students are taught simply how to solve problems mathematically if their numeracy skills are good enough. This leads to the appearance...

The Mantle of the Expert approach is about making learning exciting and meaningful to children. The idea is to create an imaginary context where the students are cast as an expert team with a job to do – rescue an injured climber, excavate an Egyptian tomb, restore a ruined castle – which the teacher uses to create purposeful activities for curriculum study – writing reports, researching the past, drawing plans to scale. In this workshop Tim will introduce the approach and take participants into an imaginary context just the way it would be done in the classroom.

The latest in education research from our blog
Learning is massively complex. We can never see it, only imply it from the outcome of tests which may, or may not, be true indicators. We can, however, use what research says in order to try and optimise learning. It is important to note that research indicates to us what probably will happen, it does...
CPD should improve the learning experience of our students. All too often it doesn’t. In fact, research indicates that only around 1% of CPD is effective. It is extremely difficult to determine the effect of CPD on learners. We cannot see learning, only imply it from outcomes which may or may not sufficiently inform us...
The required practicals allow us opportunities to relate science to our students everyday life in terms of giving a context to the practicals as well as the roles of scientists and potential careers. Many of these ideas are stolen from my colleagues at the IOP in particular Nicky Thomas @NickyThomas1 Research has shown that giving...
Teaching Energy – The New Approach Teaching Energy the ‘new way ‘ with stores emptying and filling via pathways has caused lots of confusion. In this blog I hope to clarify why the changes have been made and how to teach using the new model. The first time I came across this I was hugely...
