Digital maths learning

Inside the climate-conscious schools: from supporting local biodiversity to running eco-clubs and energy saving initiatives, new research reveals the steps the country’s schools are taking to help protect the planet. However, with curriculum pressures threatening progress amidst an escalating climate crisis, leading learning company Pearson has partnered with the likes of IEMA, the Met Office, University of Reading and the Eden Project to help put students at the heart of finding solutions.

Technology, new software and the need for devices, can often, unnecessarily, put teachers off, but in just two steps, you and your learners can be ready for their online sessions with ease - a smooth, stress-free process for all.  

It’s a warm Thursday afternoon and the air in the D&T classroom is stuffy. I’m designing packaging for a shoe brand, pen on paper, with my Body Shop canvas bag stuffed under the desk. It’s 2001 and I don’t have a mobile phone. My idea of being a designer is to work in graphics or in fashion. I know that designers create things, products, packaging, buildings. But I also know that there is too much waste, people are going hungry, and that global warming is being mentioned. What are my studies in design and other subjects teaching me about changing that? Honestly, nothing really.
