There is great potential to leverage the fantastic resources available in Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê collections. We believe those resources can be used to maximise student engagement and learning experience across a variety of courses and modules. In the previous year, the Brain and Behaviour module successfully employed the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Brain Bank (brain specimen from Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Pathology Museum) in an enjoyable active lecture. Our aim within this project is to build on that foundation and use it as a model to extend it to other modules across Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.
