Description

Now in the second year of a three-year programme the Enquiring Minds project is a collaboration between Futurelab and two secondary schools. We drop in on Ashton Park Secondary for three lessons during the first half of the summer term to see how effective this project is. The students each choose a question to research for their enquiry for the summer term. The questions are as diverse as: can we reverse global warming? how do we think? why do we get old? do ghosts exist? As part of their enquiry the students will need to interview experts in their chosen field so in the final lesson in the programme they get a few tips from a communications expert.
