1 STEM in tutor time

2 What is STEM? Science, technology, engineering and maths
These subjects are going to find the solution to the worlds problems.

3 What is it? Question the world around you. What is it for? How was it made? Can it be better?

4 It also welds and glues with precision.
A robotic arm that cam be programmed to handle parts so it can help with loading and unloading. It also welds and glues with precision.

5 A light sensor “sees” who it is drawing.
An industrial robot has been modified to autonomously create pencil sketches of human subjects. A light sensor “sees” who it is drawing.

17 Actress Biochemist Author

18 Dorothy Hodgkin, , was a British biochemist who developed protein crystallography, for which she won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in Dorothy Hodgkin looked at how atoms fit together into very complicated molecules. She used X-ray crystallography to find out what penicillin and insulin look like.

19 Actor Mathematician Journalist

20 The Liverpudlian is best known for the serious maths that has come from his analyses of games and puzzles. In 1970, he came up with the rules for the Game of Life, a game in which you see how patterns of cells evolve in a grid. Early computer scientists adored playing Life, earning Conway star status. He has come up with wonderful-sounding concepts like surreal numbers, the grand antiprism and monstrous moonshine.
