Abstract
A small-scale educational outreach pilot project was undertaken in Scottish Schools in 2010. The project aimed to share contemporary, cutting edge science and technological developments in the field of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) with communities in the vicinity of Longannet Power Station (a potential CCS demonstration site), in Fife, Scotland. An education team from The Scottish Earth Science Education Forum delivered teacher professional development workshops and school lessons in local primary and secondary schools. Results from research conducted with participants suggest that the impacts on both the teacher and pupil sample group were significant, positively impacting perceptions about science, careers, and the technology itself.
