I just wanted to pass on my thanks for the Brain Choc resource. I used it last week with my year 10 biology group and it was a hit on all fronts (theory and practical).

Hi Vicky,
Thanks for the comment. It is useful to have feedback that the teaching ideas and resources match to the curriculum and teachers find them useful.
Are there any areas of the 2011 GCSE science specs that teachers would like resources on? I know that there is some content that is brand new and so would value opinions on this. Or is there anything else that you would like to see on the website?

Great idea! (Much better than my low-tech attempt). Audacity is a great free piece of software. I often use it to record audio for projects I work on. I guess you could also use an oscilloscope to do the same thing.
