Northumbria University - Inventive STEM resources
The Inventive podcast uses storytelling to encourage listeners to find out more about engineers and what they do. In each episode, Professor Trevor Cox interviews an engineer, and then a writer uses that interview as inspiration for a piece of fiction. The podcast brings together engineering fact, with fiction in an imaginative and enthralling way.
The Inventive STEM resources use the engineers’ interviews and their work, and link them to a topic within the KS3 National Curriculum for science, computing and design technology in England. Some of the worksheets include more than one topic where relevant.
