This might be useful for some last-minute perspective.
Over Easter, Intel - via the Intel Academy - sponsored online revision courses in Leaving Cert Maths, Chemistry and Physics. The courses themselves were aimed at those local to the Intel plant in Leixlip, but they recorded the whole thing and have now made it available on YouTube.*
For physics here are six hour long classes - one each on ...

Important to stress that there is nothing in the course that students won't have heard a few hundred times already. But sometimes courses like this can help to give students an overview of the syllabus and help to get them organised. If any of you want to share them with students, please feel welcome to do so. Where they refer to notes, they are generally referring to the notes contained in the resources section of this website, or slight variants thereof. Similarly with the PowerPoints.
The videos are recordings of a zoom class with all the oddities thereof.
* Sadly, due to an editing error (not on Intel's behalf), each video begins with several minutes of a confused looking middle-aged man staring at a camera.....Best to skip the first 8-10 minutes or so!
