Quantum Behaviour.
It would be excellent if you could watch the videos by Richard Feynman at http://vega.org.uk/video/subseries/8 especially the second one. We will watch from 27 to 41 min in school.

Plan for next few weeks

Just to stress to yr 12 Physics and electronics and year 13 electronics how little time we have left. This makes it very important that you start revision over easter. You should really concentrate on revision at home for these 5 weeks of next half term. Try not to do part time jobs and then you will get an excellent grade.
Also don't forget your resits as we may not have time to go though them.

Deadlines for coursework

We are getting very close to the deadlines for coursework.
The first week back after half term will be the last week we do coursework in class as you need to write it up.
Stick to the mark scheme and follow it as closely as possible.
The mark schemes are also available on the examination boards site in the specification documents or teacher notes if you have lost them.
You need to start writing up over the easter holiday.

Setting year 12 Physics HW

As far as possible I will set Homework in the following manner.
I will post it on this site.
I will mainly refer to these files
These are all pdf files and you can search for the appropiate part eg 30W from the file 6wave behaviour.pdf. (It would be sensible if you could downlaod all these files onto your local computer as well)
I will also add the homework to the learning platform. This should appear when you log on. From my point of view it is here>
