Code and Rescue

Code and rescue! teaches students coding through a series of physical computing and practical activities that explore the essential role engineers have in supporting the emergency services and search and rescue missions.

Although the focus of the resource is computer science, it still has deep links with mathematics, science and design and technology. It provides opportunities for students to use computational thinking and creativity to understand, change and make a difference in the world.

Please visit the STEM Resources area of the Royal Academy of Engineering’s website (found within the Education and Skills section) for a handy set of booklets and videos providing guidance on how to plan and use each of the activities.
