Ensonglopedia of the Human project: Tools & Technology / Us & The Universe

苏塞克斯大学正在与教育音乐剧公司Ensonglopedia（一家非营利有限公司）合作，提供一个更大的艺术委员会资助的科学传播项目的一部分，名为“人类的Ensonglopedia”，将以现场表演，音乐视频，学校研讨会，CD和数字发行专辑以及教育包的形式传播给KS 2/3的年轻观众。该项目从各种科学和哲学的角度探讨了人类的意义。该应用程序侧重于该节目的26首教育歌曲中的两首：一首关于工具设计从史前到现在的演变（例如粒子加速器和太空望远镜）的歌曲，以及一首关于人类与整个宇宙的关系的歌曲。我们将为这两首歌制作一个音乐视频，并制作一个纪录片“webisode”，其中包括这些视频以及额外的背景科学和对该领域专家的采访。纪录片的元素将展示科学背后的人性，激发年轻观众对STEM学科的进一步学习。为了制作视频，我们将在迪奇林小学举办一系列工作坊，在那里我们将在歌曲中传播科学，让孩子们在我们的指导下为视频创作动画元素，从而强调创造性艺术与科学的传播和公众理解之间的联系。这笔资金还将用于在苏塞克斯大学和格里姆斯比的两所小学举办的现场表演《人类百科全书》。最后，我们将制作一个教师资源包，其中包含游戏、练习和建议，以便围绕这两首歌曲的主题进行进一步研究。所有内容，包括歌词，都将由不同领域的广泛顾问进行同行评审，包括苏塞克斯大学STFC资助的科学家，以及安大略圆周理论物理研究所的科学家，和里斯本大学。“工具与技术”的歌曲，视频和教师资源将：- 以轻松愉快的方式教育观众，使其了解人类掌握技术的总体历史，包括用木、石、铁和硅制造工具以及利用火，电磁学和基本粒子-通过以有趣和引人入胜的方式展示他们的课堂主题，激励学校学生继续他们的STEM学习-补充KS 2和KS 3的国家课程，特别是关于电，磁，力的使用和功能以及不同材料的使用“我们与宇宙”歌曲，视频和教师资源将：- 教育和娱乐观众关于我们目前对大爆炸宇宙学和标准模型粒子物理学的理解-鼓励学校学生继续在物理学和天文学相关的研究，通过提出他们的课堂主题在一个娱乐和参与的方式-补充在KS 2和KS 3的国家课程，特别是关于地球的位置和运动通过太阳系，人类百科全书项目作为一个整体将：-教育其观众在人类科学的广泛主题，包括解剖学，医疗保健，进化，社会学，神经科学，农业的发展-刺激其观众对科学，地球和人类同胞的尊重-激励年轻人追求物理，生物学，医学和其他STEM领域的职业-补充KS 2和KS 3的国家科学课程

The University of Sussex is teaming up with educational musical theatre company Ensonglopedia (a not-for-profit limited company) to deliver part of a larger Arts Council-funded science communication project entitled 'Ensonglopedia of the Human', which will be disseminated to a young audience at KS2/3 in the form of a live show, music videos, school workshops, an album on CD and digital release, and an educational pack. The project explores what it means to be human, from a variety of scientific and philosophical perspectives.This application focuses on two of the show's 26 educational songs: a song about the evolution of tool design from pre-history to the present day (e.g. particle accelerators & space telescopes), and a song about humankind's relationship with the Universe as a whole. We will be commissioning a music video for both songs, and a documentary 'webisode' featuring these videos as well as additional background science and interviews with experts in the field. The documentary element will showcase the human face behind the science, to inspire its young audience to pursue further study in STEM subjects.In order to make the videos, we will run a series of workshops at Ditchling Primary School, where we will disseminate the science in the songs to enable the children to create the animation elements for the videos under our guidance, thus stressing the links between the creative arts and the communication and public understanding of science. The funding will also pay for performances of the live show, Ensonglopedia of the Human, at the University of Sussex and at two primary schools in Grimsby. And finally we'll produce a teacher's resource pack with games, exercises and suggestions for further investigation around the themes of the 2 songs.All content, including song lyrics, will be peer reviewed by a wide range of advisors in different fields, including STFC-funded scientists at the University of Sussex, and scientists at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario, and the University of Lisbon.The 'Tools & Technology' song, video and teachers' resources will:- educate its audience, in a light-hearted and entertaining way, on the overarching history of humankind's mastering of technology, including the fashioning of tools from wood, stone, iron and silicon, and the harnessing of fire, electro-magnetism and fundamental particles- inspire school students to continue their studies in STEM by presenting their classroom topics in an entertaining & engaging way- supplement the National Curriculum at KS2 and KS3, in particular regarding the uses and functioning of electricity, magnetism, forces, and the use of different materialsThe 'Us & the Universe' song, video and teachers' resources will:- educate and entertain its audience regarding our current understanding of Big Bang cosmology and Standard Model particle physics- inspire school students to continue their studies in physics & astronomy related studies by presenting their classroom topics in an entertaining & engaging way- supplement the National Curriculum at KS2 and KS3, in particular regarding the Earth's position and motion through the solar system, and the electromagnetic spectrum The Ensonglopedia of the Human project as a whole will:- educate its audience on a wide range of subjects in the human sciences, including anatomy, healthcare, evolution, sociology, neuroscience, the development of agriculture- stimulate in its audience a respect for science, the planet and their fellow human beings- inspire young people to pursue careers in physics, biology, medicine, and other STEM areas- supplement the National Curriculum in science at KS2 and KS3
