Skill 1.9 Information for the Public

Produced by Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme, in this activity students study a short podcast from the National Geographic. The clip is intended to encourage members of the public to replace standard light bulbs with low-energy light bulbs. It presents science themes in a way that gets a message across. The link to the National Geographic video collection is in the weblinks document included. Students consider the effectiveness of the communication as well as to what extent the science content in the message has been compromised.
