Science Across the World is the international flagship programme of GlaxoSmithKline in partnership with The Association for Science Education. It provides a forum for students aged 10 to 17 years to exchange facts and opinions with students in other countries. Students use a unique series of compact resource topics on environmental and social science issues that have been developed by educators, together with independent experts, on the issues concerned.

On this CD ROM you can print out the following Science Across the World unit Chemistry in Our Lives. For further information please visit the Science Across the World website at www.scienceacross.org.

Simplicity of communication is the key to the success of the programme, and it is the global exchange process between pupils working on a range of topics, by post, fax, email, and increasingly through the Science Across the World website, that makes this programme different and stimulating to hundreds of pupils and educators alike.

Starting as Science Across Europe in 1990, this flexible programme has expanded to Asia Pacific, Africa, America, and most recently to Latin America. In each region we have developed extensive collaborations with highly regarded educational partners to bring the programme to grass roots levels in schools.

The resources for all our topics are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese languages. Some of the topics are available in many more European and Asian languages, including Japanese. If you require the resources in another language, please contact Science Across the World. Details are in the Teacher Notes on the PDF files.
