This workshop is designed for educators, preparing them to integrate repair into teaching about the molecular science behind adhesives. In exploring how different binding agents interact with various materials, participants learn about types of bonds and how to choose the most suitable adhesives for repairing broken items.
This resource shows how integrating repair activities into science curriculum brings concepts about sustainable living into the classroom.
