APS 279 - 'Talking The Talk' - Getting Science on Film
These were questions asked of undergraduate students in the Department of Animal & Plant Sciences. The students had a week to create a short film for a daytime TV audience; the films needed to explain an aspect of modern biological research, and describe how it was relevant to the audience.
Go behind the scenes of the module, and watch the films they created.
