Understanding and implementing Science capital in your practice SP200 / M02

“Science capital can be defined as the sum of all the science-related knowledge, attitudes, experiences and resources that an individual builds up through their life. This includes what science they know about, what they think about science, the people they know who have an understanding of science, and the day-to-day engagement they have with science”, So, what is your student’s science capital and how can you improve your student’s science capital?In this workshop we will look at how we can ‘measure’ your student’s science capital and use this to develop strategies in your practice to enhance and develop your student’s engagement and understanding of science.
