Working with you to enhance the student experience
This project involved the creation of a set of key fobs containing polymers samples which have been used primarily for schools outreach by London Metropolitan University.
These key fob samples have been disseminated widely, whether through school visits organised by IOM or other visits at London Met (partial list provided). They have been accessed by both school and university audiences, though there is no evaluated evidence of exactly how they have utilised in various classroom contexts. But they have been so popular that their stock has now dwindled.
At the moment, these samples are a static resource, but have the potential to be developed further, so that it can be disseminated amongst a much wider audience. Preliminary surveys and anecdotal evidence suggests that the audience base for such a project is wide and varied, ranging from school audiences to university students, those involved in design courses, and perhaps commercial customers.
