What do teachers say about this resource? (12284, 12285, 12286)
I would certainly recommend this resource, I am hugely impressed with the content...This resource is clearly and concisely written at a level that is easily accessible for the learner...
The activities are engaging and learner focused so would need no subject specialist knowledge from the teacher... There is a large number of data handling resources which reflects the types of problems often set as exam questions. These types of activity allow a non-subject specialist to cover the theory associated with practical material, without the need to set up a practical, lab-based teaching session.
Resource is very useful and I would use most of the resources as cover, or would be happy to set as cover if a member of my department was absent. It requires little teacher input for the activities so cover lessons with non-specialists are fine.
Several of the tasks are excellent, particularly the activities for acid and alkali and organic chemistry.
