As part of the organisational change series, this post shares some of the ways we started raising awareness of, and distributing, resources around science capital research to colleagues in the Science Museum Group.
How can we build a ‘community of good practice’? This March we launched the Manchester hub of the Science Museum Group Academy, and announced our ‘Science Capital in Practice’ programme, in collaboration with the UK Association for Science and Discovery Centres (ASDC).
Our engagement reflection points put the audience at the heart of what we do, helping us influence and shape their engagement with, and attitudes towards, science.
Part of our organisational change series, this post looks at the suite of courses and resources we developed to help communicate the science capital research and embed a science capital approach across our group of museums.

What we’ve learned about publishing our learning resources online.
To celebrate International Science Centre and Science Museum day we are launching our new animation about science capital and the informal science sector.
The Enterprising Science research team at University College London and Kings College London have produced a pack of resources based on their research to help teachers engage students with science.
