In this module students will study barnacle morphology, life histories and life styles as Darwin did. He based his classification and search for a common ancestor upon his studies. Recent work using genetic and molecular evidence and scanning electron microscopy shows how some of the key difficulties in drawing the...

These career cards have been designed to be used alongside a presentation with 9 to 11 year olds to raise their awareness of the range of STEM careers open to them, career opportunities available in industry and the advantages of studying STEM subjects when they are older. The resource includes instructions for...

These two Future Morph resources aim to show students that there is a wide choice of options open to those who study sciences and mathematics. The resources consist of:

The list covers six...

This presentation provides an introduction to different careers linked to the construction industry.

Set in the context of the construction industry, this resource supports students to be more aware of employment opportunities through using labour market information.

In this activity, students use what they have found out about community transport systems to suggest possible solutions to existing transportation problems. They watch the film Transportation Planning which focuses on the career of a transportation planner who worked on...

Set in the context of the construction industry, this resource supports students to understand more about writing a CV and what content they might consider including.

In this Science upd8 activity students take on the role of forensic science technicians who are acting as expert witnesses for the murder of Angel. Students analyse blood splatter patterns to check whether the murder weapon used was a hammer. They also watch a demonstration of a blood viscosity test to check...

An editable slide-deck for teachers, advisers and STEM Ambassadors to inform and inspire 14 to 19 year olds about a careers in engineering. 

Students use the resource to look at some of the sectors in Engineering including Aerospace, Automotive, Communications, Electrical/Electronic, Mechanical, Biomedical, Chemical, Environmental, Transport, Rail & Marine Engineering.

Through production of a written research piece, supported by information...
