- Does your school have a resources
website you'd like others to visit?
- Have you discovered a great site
you think other teachers should
see?
We want to enhance this list on the
Science Year and ASE websites during
the year, so if you would like to
recommend a website please send a
brief email description to the ASE
Science Year team.
These websites are all good sources
of information and you could build
them into interactive worksheets like
those at Schoolscience.
Science Year should be about encouraging
the sharing of good resources that
work. If you have any resources that
you have developed and are happy to
share why not do this on the ASE website
at www.scishop.org
Some of these web addresses link
directly to specific pages. They were
correct at our time of press but could
have changed in the meantime. If that
is the case, using the front section
of the url address may link you to
the main site.

Wondering what they can do for your
school? This list gives you contact
details for a large number of learned
bodies and professional organisations
that support education.
