Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] suggestions needed for a 'Science Behind the Headlines' course

Hi Hilary - it sounds like a fascintaing course whcih I'd like to attend.

I have run sessions for secondary schools on climate change in the news. I
have a number of participative activities they can engage in as to why the
issue is controversial. I can pass these on if you email me.

Best wishes
Anne
