Science

On this page you can see examples of films made by Year 8 and Year 9 students to illustrate ideas in Science.

The students work in small groups to plan and shoot the films, using ordinary webcams, attached to laptop computers.

They are then edited using simple editing software.

The whole process takes about three lessons of 100 minutes.
