3D : Bring them back ALIVE!
Coming Soon
This show is a further extension of the Gravity Show + Workshop concept. Where, as with Gravity, the pupils are using our voting pads, but this time how they vote determines what happens next in the show. So, as a group they are making decisions. Amongst other things, the show covers the working of the heart, lungs, and digestive system using a mix real volumetric data from MRI and CT scans and 3D models and animations. This all happens in the context of a space mission, that has encountered problems while navigating through the Kuiper belt, at the outer edge of our solar system. The ship is rescued by an alien ship, manned by solely by robots. The first part of the challenge, is for the pupils to help the robots make decisions on how to revive the two crew, who are in cryo chambers. Then various emergencies arise that the students need to deal with. The show ends with the students having to make a major ethical decision... then, after the show, the class, now broken down into groups, and teacher continue to debate and research the issues raised, to enable a report of their revised decision to be submitted to us, within a specified time, in the form of a movie, podcast, powerpoint, website or a magazine article. We are currently trying to raise a small amount of additional funds to allow us to offer prizes to both the winning schools and the members of the winning team along the line of the "What Maxwell did for us" competition we ran in 2006.
