This interdisciplinary approach using STEM/ STE(A)M subjects involves the learners being ‘hooked’ by a plea from the head of their Council to design a new school sustainably. Ideas of fair trading and fair testing are explored in the resource. This resource comprises five sessions: auditing your school’s current sustainable features, learning about fair trading using: a maths building game, designing and then making a sustainable school t-shirt (fast fashion) building a windmill with easy materials applying the fair test principle in which scenario the windmill works better. This resource includes: • A teacher block overview for the five sessions (Auditing your School’s sustainability, Fair Trade building, Sustainable School Clothing, Building Wind turbines, Fair test on a wind turbine) • Learner log-book (learner planning sheet) • Teacher guide for each session with any associated material [worksheet (lesson 1), ppt slide (lesson 2), hyperlinks] • Learner ‘hook’ letters (This can be customised to your situation) Learning outcomes in the Curriculum for Excellence TCH 2-02b, TCH 2-04b, TCH 2-06a, TCH 2-07a, TCH 2-09a, MNU 2-10b, MNU 2-20b, MTH 2-16c, SCN 2-04a, SCN 2-20b, SOC 2-08a, SOC 2-20a, EXA 2-06a, LIT 2-02a, LIT 2-07a.

Consider this: What if a sleeping mask in a warehouse could tell the IT system that the customer’s order required it to be dispatched with a pillow and a copy of the bestseller, How to Sleep? And that it needed to reach its destination at a specific time and date, so the fastest and most sustainable method would be via Carrier X? The signal from this item sets in motion a picking device in the warehouse. A robot then delivers the mask, pillow and book to the packing station where an employee collates them tightly in a box, so no air gets shipped, and fewer packaging materials are needed. Finally, Carrier X delivers the whole consignment to the customer in a single journey, via a quick and fuel-efficient route.
