The Times Education Series : GCSE Physics

GCSE Physics

The GCSE Physics CD is an invaluable resource for any student taking this subject. Superb animations are instrumental in explaining concepts, interactive exercises offer opportunity for practice, simulated lab experiments reinforce theoretical examples and mock exams help to prepare students for the final exam. The package is well presented, thoroughly comprehensive and is suitable for students studying GCSE Physics as a single subject and / or those doing a Science Double Award. The program is divided into four sections, covering Forces & Motion, Electricity & Magnetism, Matter, the Earth, the Stars & the Planets, Waves & Optics.
