Astrobiology Impact

Primary to Secondary Transition Activities

Our primary to secondary school transition materials developed in association with RAiSE (Raising Aspirations in Science Education).

 

The UK Centre for Astrobiology have worked alongside Raising Aspirations in Science Education (RAiSE) to link astrobiology into the Scottish curriculum with transition activities between Primary and Secondary levels.

 

These have been split into 5 different sections relating to the most important topics within astrobiology:

 

 

DOL

Detection of Life Elsewhere

These activites base around how we might be able to detect life on other planets.

LIEE

Life in Extreme Environments
