Watch our STEM education event that discusses:
- baseline date from the project so far
- ‘science capital’ research on interest vs aspiration and how teachers might address this imbalance
- ‘thinking, doing, talking, science’ - simple techniques that studies have been shown to raise attainment in science for girls, lower attaining students and students on FSM
- how to borrow the £750 IR camera + some fun demo ideas for your class
