Flashcard activity to revise/ learn the sources of various vitamins, whether they are fat soluble, or water soluble vitamins, and deficiency diseases caused by lack of these vitamins. I run it as a matching pairs activity, then a sequencing activity where the pupils match the source to the vitamin, then group the effects of under-consumption together.

I made this to accompany our NOVA data-logger in EKG mode but works with smartphone apps and other dataloggers. Can be used as a starter or plenary of the ECG. Comprises of flashcards and matching pairs games. The EKG data-logger DOES show the various waves, and model EGKs are also available. Aimed at Upper sixth Biologists/ Sports scientists/ 1st year medics.

A nice independent research project written for the IDBP syllabus, but also used as Oxbridge and year 1 medical prep. It is essentially a research exercise looking at drugs and drug development. Can be used as Prep, or Homework, or, as a FOFO lesson if you have to set cover.

A word doc with weblinks/ page references for independent research. Covers alkenes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, polymerisation, electrophilic addition, nucleophilic substitution, Includes gap fill, best response (multi choice) questions, mechanisms etc. I use this as prep, but can also be used as homework, or as a cover lesson.

This is for pupils to develop the ability to use a spreadsheet (I wrote it in excel) to process a large amount of data in order to calculate a value for g (set to be a little lower than 9.8) and then lead into consideration of experimental errors. Using s=ut + 1/2at2 pupils can calculate gravitational acceleration. Pupils are provided with values for s and t Pupils need to calculate a mean t from a very large data set (easy to do using excel). Pupils then need to square the mean t. Then they need to plot s against t2 which will give them a linear graph with the gradient as 1/2 a. The worksheet is editable so weaker pupils can have more guided instructions. Stronger pupils can work their way through. The accompanying worksheet then looks at errors in measurement- absolute and % AND there is a random error in the data set. Pupils can use absolute errors in the data to determine size of error bars, Pupils can work out experimental error, plot best, steepest and shallowest trend lines for g and compare that against the total % error in their data.

A guide to calculating absolute and percentage error, experimental error, propagating errors and using excel to construct appropriate graphs treating errors via error bars, best, steepest, shallowest gradients etc.

A learning resource to help students learn the anatomy of the Brachial plexus- in terms of Roots, Trunk, divisions, chords, branches and the function of these branches

Full guide to laboratory reports for IB Includes error treatments.

This is a set of flashcards written to cover cardiac activity. It can be differentiated by task- stronger pupils can have a stretch and challenge set, weaker pupils can have just the basics. Used as a plenary or a starter. Good for pupils preparing for interview, or as Revision activity for year 1 medics. I use it as private tutoring material for a medic, and with sixth formers.

A quick revision set for helping older pupil prepare for an Oxford Medical interview. I use this as flashcards and/ or a matching pairs game then a sequencing activity. Covers Enzymes. Lock and Key hypothesis Michaelis-Menton I used it with my sixth formers and also as a preparation for an Oxford interview, and also as part of Private Tutoring of a student reading medicine. It's potent and it works.

Used with a year 1 medic to prepare for end of year exams. May be good for upper sixth with aspirations of studying medicine.

Can be used as a lesson Starter or Plenary. I use it as a simple matching pairs activity. Simple Q and A format. Fine for revision. Or sequencing activity. I use this with my sixth formers as a revision/ stretch and challenge activity for those going on to read medicine. I also use it for Private Tutoring of a student at medical school. It's effective. Covers Mineral requirements and deficiency diseases.

This is a set of matching pairs statements or flashcards that I use as stretch and challenge for my wannabe medics. Good for Sixth Formers. Can be used as a starter or a plenary. Covers the basics of Angina. Good for Upper 6th Health scientists but more tailored for those aspiring to be medical students (I have updated and added to it to include the material I use for private tutoring of medics)

This is a revision activity that follows on from my other Heart Health/disease flashcards (available as a massive bundle). I use it as flashcards/ matching pairs, but can be used for sequencing. Covers the causes of arrhythmias. Post 16/ pre-university grade. Editable. I wrote it to stretch and challenge good sixth formers, but later added to it to Private Tutor year 1 Medical students - can also be good for sports and health scientists.

Set of flashcards for revising Amino acids and so forth. You can do this as a matching pairs activity or simply fold in half to make flashcards. Good for upper sixth. Used successfully with year 1 medics. I use this interchangeably with A level Biologists and A level Chemists.

Editable flashcards to help learn about defects in haemostasis. Good for year 1 medics or upper sixth pupils.

Covers the basics of embolism formation and cardiac infarction. I use this as a starter/ plenary as matching pairs and/or flashcards (same resource lends itself to both). Can be edited by user depending on level. Can be used in Sixth form biology, PSHE or Sports science lessons. Used with year 1 medic for exams- also good for sports and exercise science
