They explore different types of movement through investigating mechanisms and learn to construct flat cam mechanisms with lever and slider followers. They learn how a simple cam can be used with a lever or a slider to control movement,...
Using brand scenarios to generate ideas, Age 11-14 yearsFirst published 2012 In this resource students are encouraged to name the attributes of common brands, identifying their ‘brand personality’ on a Look, Think, Speak diagram.
