Suggested ‘Kit List’ for Project Activities
There are a number of hands-on activities that you can do if you choose to follow one or more of the suggested projects in the Conservation Pathway Volume 1 to complete your Global STEM Award. To help you on your way, we have created a list of resources* with hyperlinks to where you can source specific products online from trusted suppliers of teaching and learning supplies. How you choose to complete your project is completely optional – you may already have some of the resources or know where to acquire some of the others, or you may choose to adapt the suggested activity to make it completely your own!.
If you have a specific enquiry or any questions about sourcing suitable products for your activity, please contact us at info@ukstem.uk.
