STEM Teacher CPD workshop
Event box
The faculty of Science and Technology’s Engineering Department CPD event for teachers of Chemistry and Physics
Subjects: Chemistry, Physics and Engineering
Content: This workshop will introduce a digital teaching resource that can be used by students in a virtual learning environment, in school or at home. Teachers will learn how academics are using the simulation in current, cutting edge research, and have the chance to create their own resource to enrich the curriculum.
Examples of how the simulation has been used by Lancaster researchers:
- To analyse the impact and cause of radiation damage in nuclear reactors
- To observe how materials behave under temperature and pressure changes, resulting in the development of new manufacturing techniques.
The simulation can be used to demonstrate changes of phase and state and as a data gathering exercise to visually explain molecular dynamics and bulk properties, as well as relationships between volume, pressure, kinetic energy and temperature. The workshop will be most interesting for teachers of Chemistry and Physics at KS4 and KS5.
