These are the old practicals for the programme up to 2008
1st year 00 Introduction to using an interface 0 Introduction to Graphing and uncertainties 10 Water Boiler 11 Specific Heat Capacity of a Metal 12 Latent heat of Vaporisation 13 Gas Laws 14 Mechanical Work into Heat Ice Planning 2nd Year 15 Modes of Vibration of waves in a string Jelly Planning Chain Planning Elastic String planning | Here is a list of all the practicals that my classes do this year. My lab is kitted out with Pasco interfaces and sensors plus tablet PC's for each student, see apparatus list here. You don't need to have such sophisticated apparatus but that's what I've got :-) If you click the links you will get an introduction to the practical, a list of apparatus and a guide to assessment. At the bottom of that page there is a link, here you can download the worksheet as a word document. It is best to start at the beginning and work your way through so you will see how the programme builds up.
I have a maximum of 16 students in a class so tend to do the practicals in circuses of 4 at a time, i therefore have two sets of most things. This is not the case for practicals 0 and 00 or for the planning practicals, these are done by everyone at the same time. I am in the process of writing new practicals for the new programme. These can be found here. I will be updating this over the next two years. |
