between the light source and the algae. As Engelmann watched
the algae, he saw gas bubbles forming in the water around
some of the cells. Curiously, no gas bubbles formed around
other cells. Although Engelmann did not know it at the time,
his experiment provided a clue about how light is involved in
photosynthesis. To understand what Engelmann observed, you
need to know more about the nature of light.

Progression to Key Stage 4 (14-16)
Exploring Science: Working Scientifically is part of a coherent 11-16 teaching and
learning programme that uses the same progression framework and the same teaching
approaches throughout, meaning their is one coherent route to the requirements of the new
2016 GCSEs.
Embeds formative assessment into learning
Best practice, student-led learning is fully incorporated into all aspects of the course, along
with full teaching support.
Each topic has defined and levelled Learning Outcomes and contains matching assessment
materials, enabling you to generate measurable evidence of progression in every lesson.
Evidence-based formative assessment techniques have been fully embedded into the
course and verified by the consultant editor, Dr Angela Hall, formerly of the Nuffield
Online Digital Path Institute.
