Lift Off with STEM

Airbus

"Working with Rewise on the Lift Off with STEM project has been absolutely fantastic. They are so enthusiastic and innovative in the way they develop the programs.  So, to take our large mars rover and to make it into a miniature version for children is fantastic. It's sustainable; it's made of wood; it can be reused. That innovation has been absolutely brilliant."

Rewise Learning has teamed up with Airbus Defence and Space to take STEM learning into the stars with its Lift Off with STEM workshops. This hands-on STEM-education programme for KS3 learners, aims to ignite curiosity for space exploration and inspire uptake of STEM subjects to train our future space and science workforce. Our joint mission is to show learners why space exploration is vital and how STEM-skills underpin our greatest discoveries and newest adventures. We have created a hands-on STEM kit that gives students the chance to build replica ExoMars Rovers, based on the actual Mars Rover designed by Airbus. These workshops are delivered by our STEM outreach teams in schools across the country. To further increase the scope and reach of the project beyond our workshops, we have also created a digital learning hub, allowing educators to access training resources, so that anyone who wants to deliver space-themed lessons will be able to do so. 

About the Project

What we did

Where the project took place

UK map, map of United Kingdom

‘‘We have had so many letters from parents about the workshop saying their young people are already looking at careers in space or careers in STEM, which is so positive. 

 

They all know about space but I think having a hands on activity is really positive because, when young people come to us in year 7, they lose those creative skills that they used in primary school, so we always encourage hands on activities. They are learning through play, without even realising it.’’
