Broadening secondary school science (BRaSSS) - Teachers' Pack
The BRaSS initiative seeks to develop teachers’ and students’ understanding and insight about:-
- how knowledge works
- cross-curricular links in science
- the place of ethics in science teaching
- the value of using research projects in science teaching
Science teachers are also encouraged to explore teaching approaches more commonly used in other subjects such as open-ended discussion, role play or designing and testing objects. This Teachers' Pack provides an introduction to the project and an overview of the teaching materials which are organised by subject, with lessons for Years 7-9 and Years 10-11, in biology, chemistry and physics.
The BRaSS project has been funded by a grant to UCL Institute of Education from the Templeton World Charity Foundation as part of their ‘Big Questions in Classrooms’ initiative.
