| Summary: | "Science Museum Outreach Educators Nora Maddock and Katie Arnott visit Werneth School near Manchester to put on a Science Communication workshop. Nora and Katie start with a dynamic show for the whole of Year 7, before a group of thirty students are selected to learn how to present and explain their own scientific demonstrations, each with the crucial 'wow' factor. They get advice on presentation and the chance to practise and explore the science before they have to take to the stage themselves. The outreach team believes in the importance of communication as part of the KS3 science curriculum and hope that it will aid students in developing a critical scientific awareness of the world around them. Subject leader for science Nichola Budd describes how to make the most of such opportunities, including ideas for how the experience can be followed up. Involving only simple household props, the workshop is also easily recreated by teachers." |
