This resource, called Science EXTRA! Using Newspapers in the Science Classroom, was written by Ruth Jarman and Billy McClune, Graduate School of Education, Queen's University Belfast and has been provided by the Association for Science Education (ASE). The aims of the Newspaper in Science Education group are to:
*Encourage young people to read about science in newspapers
*Empower young people to engage critically with the science they read in newspapers
*The teachers' notes suggest how newspapers can be used in the science classroom, and to help get you started they come with four illustrative examples for you to use.
