Mission impossible - science challenges

For those seeking something to enthuse students after exams or to encourage them to think, this activity pack is a real winner. It comes as a folder outlining 11 challenges (called 'missions'), each with instructions for both teacher and technician, risk assessments, and a CD-ROM with PowerPoint messages that explode in seconds to engage pupils' imagination. Included are hint sheets for pupils struggling to know where to start and a certificate for successful 'agents'.

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor.

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
