Welcome to SciberBrain

SciberBrain is an event for year 9 or 10 pupils which addresses controversial issues with a scientific component.

SciberBrain can be run by teachers using our FREE resources and teachers' guide, or, for a limited time only, we will come to your school and run the sessions for you!

Sciberbrain is designed to be flexible and can be done as a 3 hour event or over 3-4 lessons. Alternatively, you could just add the resources to your existing scheme of work.

The topic for 2008 is Embryonic Stem Cell Research (we will be offering additional topics in 2009 – watch this space).

To run the event, you will need

  • A class of year 9 or 10 pupils (max 36)
  • A computer suite
  • 3 hours
  • A data projector
  • Space for group work (with movable tables)
