HHP & Science Education

Over the last year we have been working with a couple of media organisations in developing education materials:

Pearson Education (GCSE science course)

The module deals with energy transfers, and using and generating electricity. HHP will be used as a context for the module. This involves using the houses as examples for various aspects of heat transfer, such as insulation, solar panels and cells, etc. The ActiveBook includes a CD-ROM with sequences filmed at HHP.

These materials should be available from 2006/7 academic year.

BBC Scotland Education (Digital Curriculum service for KS3)

They are developing web-based materials for Design & Technology (KS3) including sustainability issues. Many aspects of HHP were filmed and are included on a new website, including video streams and still images, to illustrate various aspects of sustainable living.
