Twig, a science teaching resource, has launched its website providing learning support materials covering all aspects of the science curriculum for pupils up to GCSE level.
Designed and built in-house, www.twig-it.com features 500 short films, each researched, scripted, edited and produced by the Twig production team and tailor-made for the classroom. Each of the 500 Twig films have been made in a state-of the-art digital production facility in Glasgow with input from academic scientists across the UK.
Everything from the choice of music, use of graphics and duration of each film is geared towards creating films which engage and motivate students of all abilities while fulfilling curriculum learning requirements. The films are made using the latest documentary footage from more than 20 international film archives, with the footage edited to make films of 2 to 3 minutes that are easily included within a lesson and will inspire students with the wonder of science.
The Twig team includes teachers and academics to ensure the content fulfils the exacting requirements of the Science curriculum, while the mind-map interface allows the user to seek out their own links and build their own learning patterns, enabling the learner to control the pace at which they learn.
