Project details
Project topics negotiable, have a chat with us!
Content module creation
The best way to master a topic is to teach it. Learn some science communication skills and master a topic by creating videos and learning resources for high school students. All topics related to the year 11/12 curriculum available. Waves? mechanics? astrophysics? the universe? acidity? biodiversity? tectonics? archaeology? trigonometry? You name it.
Statistics of learning
Develop an understanding of state systems, national and international diagnostic and standardised science tests to determine how meriSTEM resources affect a change in the classroom, and the benefits of this change to students.
Back-of-the-class observer
Every science lesson, teacher, student group, time of day, classroom is different. So how do you objectively compare science classes? Discover what tools or frameworks exist, and how best can we observe, measure and compare science teaching styles and strategies?
We welcome students from RSPhys and beyond for research projects and internships.
