Ask the experts anything! A multi-platform approach to a “meet the researcher” format, where students are introduced to the work of a number of researchers from multiple fields. With video introductions shared with the school and over social media, followed by either an in-house or online presentation, with a QnA, where pupils can ask the experts anything, and the experts try and provide answers. This activity is done in class and conducted over multiple lessons.
Join the Science Made Simple team as they introduce why the space industry is so important for all of us, in this 36 minute video for 11-14-year-olds. This is followed up with a 15-minute Question and Answer session to understand which elements of the show each student enjoyed most and what the students think are the most important topics for future research?
