Welcome

Welcome to my website.

Here you will find useful links that we may well use in lessons as well as preps and revision.

  Please note that I do not have any control over the contents of these websites and they may well change over time.  If they do not behave as expected or you find any particularly useful  do e-mail me and let me know.

The videos hopefully will illustrate some of the topics that we have covered.  They have come from a variety of sources found on the web.  I have merely put them in some order to save you searching for them as well as ensuring that they are not moved or removed.  enjoy

Technical Info

The videos on this web site are avi files encoded using the xvid codec.  this codec and many others can be downloaded and installed from a variety of web sites the K lite codec pack is very useful. The videoLan player is an open source player that will also play almost any video file and is available for at least 19 different operating systems.  For ipad download VM player HD lite. This will allow you to watch videos up to 30 minutes long. For longer videos you will need to buy the full version.

One of the pieces of software that we have available for teaching you is Sunflower for Science.  It is very useful as it has great animations that help explain scientific ideas.

You may well see your teachers using this in class.  There may be a particular animation that your teacher will suggest you look at again at a later date to help you revise / consolidate your understanding.

They will give you a code that will be several letters an numbers long to enable you to access this.

You will need to install some software onto your ipad / pc / mac book from this site.  Unfortunately it does not work on phones.
