Cross-Curricular

These eighteen assignments and a teachers' guide, from the Association for Science Education (ASE) aim to encourage non-scientists to embrace a little science. The aim is to increase student's skills whilst quashing a few "science is boring" stereotypes. All assignments have been written to cover a variety of non-science post-16 coursework requirements. In doing so they develop a number of key skills.

Each assignment includes background material, 'What you need to do' instructions and a list of reference materials that students may find helpful.

Archaeology, Art, Business Studies, Communication Studies, Drama, English Language and Literature, Geography, General Studies, History, Leisure and Recreation, Media Studies, Travel and Tourism are all covered by aspects of the assignments.

The Teachers' Guide provides information on where and how each resource could be used within science lessons and elsewhere in the curriculum.
