About the XYZ
Using household items and materials from their local environment, Key Stage 4 students and teachers from diverse communities in the West Midlands took part in a series of workshops about sustainability in engineering.
An artist-photographer and engineers from the University of Birmingham showed participants how to create photographic prints, using materials engineering skills to build cameras and to create their own developers and emulsions. The project provided an engineering challenge to be solved using sustainable best practice.
Students and teachers developed the capacity to see everyday items as engineering tools. Throughout the workshops, the team actively encourage participants to consider all their activities, both in and outside the project, in the context of sustainable practice and engineering.
