Institute of Physics: Supporting Physics Teaching
The Supporting Physics Teaching initiative from the Institute of Physics is intended to support specialist and non-specialist teachers who teach physics in Key Stages Three to Four, in secondary education. Each topic contains a set of interactive documents which contain extensive teacher support along with student activities.
The sections covered in this series are:
• Earth in Space
• Electricity and magnetism
• Energy
• Forces
• Light
• Sound
Each topic contains a physics narrative, teaching and learning issues and teaching approaches:
• The physics narrative explains the physics of the topic using text, diagrams and video clips and could be used as a resource in the classroom.
• The teaching and learning issues explore some of the pupil misconceptions and challenges when teaching the topic.
• The teaching approaches describe suggested activities for the classroom, incorporating equipment lists and safety notes.
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment.
Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date.
Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work.
Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
