New AQA AS Biology Planning Experiment, processing data, presenting data, conclusions and evaluation

(0)
This 18 slide ppt is covering the New AQA AS Biology requirements for planning an experiment, processing the data, presenting data, drawing conclusions and evaluating data. It was made so I can use each section when carrying out experiments and showing students - key words, apparatus, equipment and techniques what is required for the New syllabus when carrying out scientific experiments. Can be used over many lessons, or each time an experiment is completed to reinforce standards required. Each slide(s) covers a specific area required for the scientific experiments: 1. Planning - keywords, apparatus, equipment and techniques 2.How to produce the perfect table 3. Risk assessments 4.Percentages, percentage changes, averages, ratios and SD 5. Perfect graphs, finding rates an 6. Correlation and causation 7. Errors in measurements, minimising errors 8. Evaluation Thank you for taking the time to look at my resource and I hope you find it beneficial.

BUNDLE OF 20 FUN QUIZZES

(0)
Bundle of 20 quizzes which I used in Form time for team building and just for a fun activity. They do not have to be used in form time they can be used for end of term activities or just in class for fun. The topics range from random to space, geography, physics, biology, science , chocolate and cars. All questions are made up of weird facts they probably wont know but are really fun. My students loved them and we kept score all term and prizes at the end for the teams who got the highest marks.
