Learning about science and culture in an engaging way

Fun & Learning ►Activity Guides 1001 Inventions Education Pack

New ideas… solving real-world problems… collaborating creatively… these are all routes to success in science and development.

Today’s scientists and engineers are building on strong foundations of innovation and knowledge-sharing. Behind some of the concepts and principles in modern maths and science are centuries of discovery and debate that began a thousand years ago in Muslim civilisation.

The 1001 Inventions Education Pack aims to inspire the next generation to take up the challenge of improving daily life through science, engineering, innovation and creativity. It provides educators and students with materials for learning about science and culture in a fun and engaging way, while highlighting contributions by scholars and scientists from Muslim civilisation.

The pack includes three sub-sections:

  • Teacher’s Guide: designed for teachers and educators, this is full of information and activities to support classroom learning, with instructions and references.
  • Build Your Own Exhibition Guide: designed to guide students and teachers through a collaborative school project to create their own 1001 Inventions show or exhibition. Includes trips, advice, information, scripts, suggested exhibits and fun educational activities.
  • Exhibition Activity Sheets: designed for use by students during their visit to a 1001 Inventions exhibition near them, with separate sets for primary and secondary school children.
