Planning for learning and teaching around forces and technologies in the context of Rescue Vehicles for second and third level<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Wednesday 29th January 2014 1615 – 1830<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dundee Science Centre Science Learning Institute is working with partners to develop its learning programme for 2014, for children, young people and practitioners. The\u00a0second of our offerings for teachers for 2014, delivered by colleagues from the School of Education, Social Work and Community Education at the University of Dundee, brings the STEM Central\u00a0Rescue Vehicles <\/a>learning journeys to life.<\/p>\n

As flooding increases in Scotland, the UK and around the globe, how can STEM subjects save us? Join us in an inhospitable mystery location to design and build a Rescue Vehicle.<\/p>\n

\u201cLearners investigate the effects of friction on motion and explore ways of improving efficiency in moving objects and systems. Learners develop their understanding of the concept of buoyancy force.\u201d\u00a0 (Education Scotland Curriculum for Excellence: sciences experiences and outcomes: Forces)<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026applying knowledge of sciences\u2026to engineer 3D objects which demonstrate strengthening, energy transfers and movement\u201d (adapted from Education Scotland Curriculum for Excellence: technologies experiences and outcomes: Craft, design, engineering and graphics contexts for developing technological skills and knowledge)<\/p>\n

This session will provide opportunities to enhance your knowledge of design and technologies alongside sciences and help you to develop medium term context plans using the STEM Central Learning Journey planning resources.<\/p>\n

Learning in the context of Rescue Vehicles offers opportunities to develop attributes and capabilities within the four capacities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Attributes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Successful Learners: enthusiasm and motivation for learning<\/p>\n

Responsible Citizens: respect for others<\/p>\n

Effective Contributors: resilience and self-reliance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Capabilities<\/strong><\/p>\n

Successful Learners: use literacy and communication skills; think creatively and independently; make reasoned evaluations.<\/p>\n

Confident Individuals: achieve success in different areas of activity.<\/p>\n

Responsible Citizens: develop knowledge and understanding of the world and Scotland\u2019s place in it; evaluate environmental, scientific and technological issues.<\/p>\n

Effective Contributors: work in partnership and in teams; create and develop; solve problems.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

This session is\u00a0recommended\u00a0for practitioners planning for learning and teaching at second and third level in sciences, technologies, engineering and mathematics.\u00a0\u00a0This event will be held at Dalhousie Building, University of Dundee, DD1 4HN. A number of charitable trust funded places are available. If you are interested, please contact us on learning@dundeesciencecentre.org.uk<\/a>. The session runs from 1630 \u2013 1830 with arrival for registration and refreshments from 1615.<\/p>\n
