Code breaking
The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the impact of science, technology, engineering and mathematics on code breaking and security using the Cold War and espionage as a hook. Students make their own code wheel based on the Caesar cipher and explore the maths behind codebreaking...
Satellite age
The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the science, technology, engineering and mathematics behind satellite communications. Students will take part in an interactive demonstration of a satellite network and use scientific investigation to learn how the law of reflection is used...
Disaster relief
The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the RAF use science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills when delivering humanitarian aid. Students will design and make a lander for aid delivered by aircraft.
Welsh versions of the guidance documents are included.
Logistics challenge
The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate how the RAF use science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills when planning a mission. Students will use maths to work out how to pack an aircraft effectively.
Welsh versions of the guidance documents are included.
