Discover some of the most surprising scientific discoveries to come out of Manchester in this interactive, skills-building workshop.
In this session, your class will hear the stories of three unusual Manchester discoveries, and how they impacted the world.
Learners will then be challenged to tackle our very own group problem-solving challenge. Taking inspiration from the stories they've heard, they'll have to think like scientists to find the solutions—and perhaps make some surprising discoveries of their own!
