Science Where You Least Expect It!
4 SCIENCE has produced eighteen assignments
and a teacher's guide to encourage
non-scientists to embrace a little
science - increasing student's skills
whilst quashing a few "science
is boring" stereotypes.
All assignments have been written
to cover a variety of non-science
post-16 coursework requirements. In
doing so they develop a number of
key skills.
Each assignment includes background
material, 'What you need to do' instructions
and a list of reference materials
that students may find helpful.
Archaeology, Art, Business Studies,
Communication Studies, Drama, English
Language and Literature, Geography,
General Studies, History, Leisure
and Recreation, Media Studies, Travel
and Tourism are all covered by aspects
of the assignments.
As an added incentive 4 SCIENCE,
in association with Science Year,
is offering a prize to the student
that produces the best assignment.
The resource files include a poster
to advertise the competition in your
school or college.
The Teacher's Guide provides information
on where and how each resource could
be used within science lessons and
elsewhere in the curriculum. Links
to A-Level coursework requirements
for all subjects and examining boards
are given at the end of the Teacher's
Guide.
We suggest you print out the Teacher's
Guide and distribute it to all departments
in your school/college. They can then
access appropriate material from this
website.
