Who Wants to Be a Scientist?

This resource, from the Association for Science Education (ASE), is based on a well-known quiz format. It is a PowerPoint presentation, and works well in class or as a lunchtime competition using overheads. The quiz could be run during lunch times as an inter-form competition, or within class time. After teachers have saved the PowerPoint quiz to their computers they can customise the questions as they wish. Each team will need their three lifeline cards to use once in the game. The game runs for about 20-30 minutes with four teams. Teachers do need the killer question at the end for tie-breaks.

This resource is part of the SYCD Who am I? collection.
