For each lesson you will find an outline and outcomes, teacher notes and a presentation; some lessons will have additional resources.

AIT has entered into an agreement to make some of our classroom resources available through the Institution of Engineering and Technology. Our charitable aim is to make our free lesson plans available to the widest possible audience and the IET helps us to do that at no cost through their much larger network and alongside their other excellent STEM-related activities and resources. Simply click the title of the lesson plan to find more information and where this is the case you will find a link to the full resource.

Please be aware that where the full resource is shown below you fill need to do the following:
