Science Within Work

The Future Morph website was created in 2008 by the Science Council to provide a range of careers-related contexts to support teaching of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The materials helped students to understand the relevance of STEM subjects to a wide range of career routes, many of which they do not necessarily associate with these subjects. The resources include short video profiles of people who use STEM in their job. Each video is linked to a practical activity suggested in the accompanying resources booklet and teachers' notes.

Although, rather dated many of these resources are still relevant and useful today.

More details about the current activity of the Science Council can be found on their website, which includes the professional registration award for educators, Chartered Science Teacher (CSciTeach).
