The NQ Sciences team met with two representatives from the BBC Scotland Learning team today. The purpose of our meeting was to provide the Beeb with an update on the changes to content and course structure of the new Highers in Chemistry and Physics, so that they can plan ahead to adapting their excellent ‘Bitesize‘ revision resources . You can see the Higher Bitesize revision sites for Chemistry, Physics or Biology – they’re excellent resources!

We had a very fruitful meeting, and tried to identify each organisation’s areas of strength, so that we avoid duplication of effort in the future! One of the most exciting things to come out of this meeting was to find out that the BBC are very keen to be involved in providing scientific video clips to support the new Higher Science curricula, both via their own excellent ‘Learning Zone’, or potentially even embedded into the LTS website. help with this! What BBC programmes or clips would you love to have available to help you teach the new Higher in your Science subject?! All suggestions very welcome!
