Sunday 11th July 2021 marks World Population Day. A great teaching resource that I have used over the years in my classroom has been the https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/

This is a great tool to introduce live data into lessons as a thinking resource. Another opportunity is to let your students explore, collect, compare the data as part of a bigger independent task.

Inspire the future innovators in your classroom to use their ‘Engineering Habits of Mind’ to create ideas, inventions that could improve access to resources for everyone in the world or give opportunities to live in a more sustainable way. On World Population Day 2021, think about how you can inspire your STEM innovators of the future in the next week ahead.
