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

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.

What would your community like to learn about space? Have your students question their friends and family about what they would like to learn about. Then have your class plan an event, with fun and educational activities and help answer the questions their community has!

Introduce your class to an expert and give your students the freedom to ask the experts questions on what they find most interesting about the guests' careers. Afterwards, the students work in groups to develop their own classroom activity on a specific aspect of the discussion and let them share what they have learnt with a different group of students. This is a classroom activity, which can be extended over a number of lessons and can incorporate different age groups and subjects.

What space research would you invest in? Give your students the power in this Dragon’s Den format. Three hopeful space sector experts come into the den hoping to win over your students. After pitching their research, the students vote on the expert they liked the most and what area of space science they would want to invest their money with.

Students work together to solve a number of challenges in relation to ensuring supply of oxygen, energy, and food in order to survive on Mars.

Students work together in groups to design their "mission to Mars". Each team select examine experiments and set up a plan on how they want to achieve these goals. The focus of this activity is on collaboration and using transdisciplinary thinking to solve problems.

A Science Show that brings students on a journey to Mars. Using a combination of dialogue and demonstrations the students will learn about the variety of professionals working with space, and what career might interest them.

A true challenge where students will have to face the laws of physics to complete their mission.

Students have to face the laws of physics to complete their mission. In this online activity, 11-16 year-olds have to complete a series of online challenges to help them successfully complete their mission!
