The activity was designed to be very flexible so as to cope with differing session lengths (often 30 to 60mins)

Teacher CPD event including Science Capital, Thinking, Doing, Talking Science and IR demos for school science. In this video, Explorer Dome brings together expert educators and researchers to discuss how to bridge the gap between a student's interest in space and science subjects to a belief that a career in these industies is an achevable and worthwhile goal. And how to promote these subjects in an inclusive way.

A student-guided tour of space, presenter-led but curated by the children themselves. Planets, moons, black holes, and nebulae are just some of the highlights of this engaging session. This activity requires access to a planetarium, although alternative methods are possible without the use of a planetarium.

Our project impact advisor Jen DeWitt gives teachers an overview of research into the concept of science capital. The 13-minute video gives tips on how it can be applied in the classroom and across the school community.

Inspired teachers inspire students! Our Space Our Future wants to share the endless possibilities that a career in the space sector can offer. To inspire the next generation of engineers, astronomers, mathematicians… today’s pupils are tomorrow’s trailblazers! But as an individual organisation, we can only reach so many. This teacher training session hosted by Explorer Dome shares the experiences of STEM teachers and educators, sharing best practices, resources and techniques, as well as hearing from experts in the field of science education research.

It is not just a matter of fact.... or even just facts about matter? Part two of our Curiosity Show, featuring experiments with solids, liquids and gasses! We also keep things cool with some demonstration with liquid nitrogen! If you have access to liquid nitrogen, and someone with expertise working to work with it, try out these experiments in your classroom, alternatively as a member of the Explorer Dome team to give you a hand!

Don’t always believe your eyes! This curious blend of demonstrations will have the audience scratching their heads as a blend of physics and chemistry “tricks” to encourage critical thinking and as an introduction to the scientific process. This is a selection of demos that can be presented individually, as part of a series, or together as a long-form show when combined (approximately 40 minutes).

A teacher training session where the aims and objectives of the Our Space Our Project are introduced to teachers and educators. It is also an opportunity for teachers to learn about the recent growth within the space sector and the diversity of space-related careers that are available.
