Skills training resources
Coming Soon!
We are developing a set of Skills Training lessons to teach the skills most critical for investigations and engineering challenges.
The lessons are based on a case study approach. Cases are set in realistic contexts designed to spark curiosity and provide insight into a range of STEM careers. Consistent with our approach of teaching enquiry stage-by-stage, each case will focus on one or two stages of the enquiry process. The resources provide for each case study will include:
- Introduction and narrative for the case
- Scaffolded challenges for students
- Structured help sheets for the skills involved
- Teachers guide with assessment guidance
Each case is designed to last around 2 lessons. The resources are flexible and their cognitive demand can be adjusted by varying the amount of structure and scaffolding.
