Engineering gold. In the classroom
Description
How Science Works is a series of three 15-minute digital programmes for students and teachers of Key Stage 4 / GCSE Science. The Principle Investigator of the project is Prof. Trevor Cox. The programmes broadcast on Teachers TV, depict three charismatic inspirational scientists describing and demonstrating their work. To accompany the broadcast programmes, a series of downloadable versions of the programmes will be produced, including supplementary inserts and narrative soundtrack using interviews with science education professionals, drawing out key aspects of how scientists carry out their research. The downloadable programmes will be used in initial teacher training and CPD. Both versions of the programme will be supplemented further by lesson resources and by training courses. The training and web-based resources will be designed to support teachers engaging with the materials via distance learning, and for use by expert trainers providing face-to-face training for teachers both to embed the activity and disseminate as widely as possible.
