The principle behind this exhibit is that our brains have evolved to immediately process verbal information, so much so that this information will dominate the interpretation of the list of words, even when we are trying simply to read out the colours of the words. This resource is for teachers, parents and carers to use in Sciences (SCN 2-12b / SCN 3-12a) for Second / Third (P5 – S3).
An eight-part project about sea level change since the ice age. Covers glaciation, global warming and isostasy. Includes lesson plans, presentations, workbooks and a template for a timeline poster to illustrate the content of the eight sessions. This resource is for teachers to use in Geography/sciences IDL for Third/Fourth.
The human visual system has evolved over many tens of millions of years to operate in a world that is mostly lit by white light. Systems in the brain, working entirely unconsciously, compensate for changes in illumination. This resource is for teachers, parents and carers to use in Sciences (SCN 1-12b / SCN 2-11b / SCN 2-12b / SCN 3-12a) for First / Second / Third (P2 – S3).
This resource is a set of 5 lesson plans with slides, an experiment (with worksheets for analysing the results) and assessment items. The target audience for this resource is for learners aged between 14 and 16 years. This resource is for teachers and learners to use in N4/5 Biology for SQA N4/5.
Your eyes normally see roughly the same image, with only a small difference between each eye. Even these differences are used by your brain to work out distances to objects. Your brain has evolved to quickly combine these two similar images, to form a 3D scene. This resource is for teachers, parents and carers to use in Sciences (SCN 2-12b / SCN 3-12a) for Second / Third (P5 – S3).
Teacher and student resource pack covering the effects and causes of cardiovascular disease and medical methods for preventing it. This resource is for teachers/learners to use in Human Biology for Higher.
