GCSE Biology - Microscopy

A teaching video for GCSE biology students about the optical and electron microscopy.

In this video we cover the ideas of magnification and resolution of microscopes, reviewing the way that optical and electron microscopes work. We also review some worked examples of calculations of magnification, image size and specimen size.

I hope you find it useful in your studies and revision.

This video is part of an interactive course on my website:

All teaching videos on my website are INTERACTIVE (with navigation bookmarks and many interactive questions which pop up throughout the video to test your understanding, and many other unique features).

These courses also contain many other interactive features which tailor themselves to the needs of each individual learner, including revision quizzes, exam-style assessments, revision notes, etc.

I'm making use of my experience as a full time science teacher in the UK and my (growing!) understanding of coding, web design, AI and machine learning to apply game theory to science education, with the aim of building the most feature-rich and advanced science e-learning platform anywhere; follow my progress here and at the social networks below, and watch this space!
