Glossary (61 KB)
This teachers’ glossary of ‘Ideas about Science’ terms is compiled by the C21 team. It clarifies the way these terms are used in the OCR GCSE Science specification and OUP resources.
Note that ‘Ideas about Science’ is the term used in this course; they fully cover the QCA requirements for teaching ‘How Science Works’.
Students should learn these ideas from experiencing examples in different contexts. This list is not intended for students.
