Science Communication course - Day 2

This started with info on what Teachers wanted from scientists i.e. the Contemporary Science angle.
Next, we had a bit of a scavenger hunt in the Resources room (See photo from Day1) - this was a place where I could seriously get my geek on with lots of books and props for science education...
We then had a session with an alumni of the course who gave us his experiences of the second part of the course (Presenting to a Teachers' conference) and some good advice.
Next up was a session about the FreshScience project. We also had a go at an typical exam question and were invited to try taking one of our datasets and reworking it to make it accessible to pupils and teachers for practice at data analysis (Might see if we can do this with the Marmite data from the Taste & Flavour events).
We then had a session on the Learning Hub where we will be getting tasks to perform as CPD in the gap between the two parts of the course. This will hopefully help us to polish up our 45-minute activities at the Teachers' conference. To quote Alfred E. Neumann from Mad magazine - "Wot - me worry?" (Yes!).
