• This teaching resource explains the work of Aleksandra Tymczak, an agricultural researcher at the University of Alberta, Canada. She is investigating the challenges and opportunities facing new beekeepers and berry farmers in Alberta.

• This resource also contains an interview with Aleksandra and offers an insight into careers in agricultural studies. If your students have questions for Aleksandra, they can send them through the Futurum Careers website.

• The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Aleksandra’s research and challenges them to design a policy that could support new farmers.

This resource was first published by Futurum Careers, a free online resource and magazine aimed at encouraging 14-19-year-olds worldwide to pursue careers in science, tech, engineering, maths, medicine (STEM) and social sciences, humanities and the arts for people and the economy (SHAPE).
