Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), this case study looks at the themes of progression, new jobs and careers in STEM. North Lindsey College has been developing a suite of activities to encourage local young people to choose STEM subjects, and reminding them of the opportunities that are...
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to support learners’ progression through STEM, whether from school to college, or to HE or employment.
The projects, drawn from organisations across the FE and skills sector, explore a...
Aoibheann is a project engineer and she works out how to put together or improve a production line to make great chocolate on a large scale. She tested Toffee Crisps to make sure they were right for consumers when she started at Nestlé before moving on to the coffee-making process, which is where she works now....
This resource from the Royal Academy of Engineering describes how the London Engineering Project worked to encourage students to see engineering as a potential career path. All activities used an Engineering Message to contextualise engineering and emphasise its impact on the world around us.
The project...
Protecting Your Head, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about engineering. The context for the activities is the design of head protection for snowboarders where the risk of injury...
Follow Women’s Engineering Society’s president Dawn Bonfield on her journey looking at some incredible and inspiring stories of female engineers past and present. ...
A Catalyst article about Quantum Tunnelling Composite, a material discovered in 1997 and whose resistance decreases dramatically under pressure. How does it work and what uses will it have? The material has been carefully characterised (to understand its composition and how it works), and its first applications...
The UK is at the forefront of research into Quantum Technology, where physics pushes the cutting edge of technological innovation.
These resources, from the UK National Quantum Technologies programme, bring a-level physics and computer science bang up...
This activity booklet uses the real life context of air traffic control using radar signals to identify the position of an aeroplane that students act out. It provides them with an opportunity to use their knowledge of waves and speed = distance / time to calibrate and calculate the distance a plane is from the...
From the LSIS, these materials cover two sessions designed to take students through the basic principles of manipulating and solving equations. The learners work through building an equation, checking the equation and solving the equation. They are then asked to create their own equation and swap it with a partner...
The reduction mill reduces the thickness of a strip of steel using a series of rollers, each roller making the steel slightly thinner. The percentage reduction is constant on each pair of rollers. The mathematics used to calculate the actual reduction is similar to that used when calculating compound interest....
The purpose of the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Mapping Review, published by the Department for Education in 2004, was broadly to:
• investigate whether STEM initiatives currently being taken forward address the concerns raised about the decline in demand of university places in...
This resource, produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service, helps students to understand how and why incidents must be reported. Not just to apportion blame, but to allow analysis of their causes. This prompts action to help prevent further accidents in the future. The materials ask students to use a...
The Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) funds and produces research in areas of post-16 education and training in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). These resources are some of the reports, research and guidance that have been published. They include the areas of:
* Progression into...
