The Scottish Science and Technology Roadshow (SCI-FUN), is a non-profit science roadshow for schools run by the University of Edinburgh.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The SCI-FUN Roadshow )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SCI-FUN, the Scottish Science and Technology Roadshow )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The SCI-FUN Roadshow )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mobile Science Projects around the world )〕 The organisation states its aim as 'increasing enjoyment of and participation in science and technology-based subjects in Scottish schools' and operates mainly at Standard Grade level. It operates a travelling roadshow which visits schools in Scotland and the north of England, and organises special events such as at the Edinburgh International Science Festival. Its mode of operation as a travelling roadshow enables SCI-FUN to provide a science centre experience to pupils in remote areas of Scotland, such as the Highlands and Islands. ==SCI-FUN Roadshow== The SCI-FUN Roadshow tours secondary schools around Scotland offering a combination of presentations and hands-on exhibits encompassing scientific subjects in the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, maths, engineering and technology. The Roadshow is presented to S1 and S2 pupils (11-14 years old) with assistance from senior pupils studying sciences at Higher or Advanced Higher level. The 2010/11 Roadshow includes presentations focusing on the senses and research, along with a talk encouraging pupils to consider the study of science subjects at Standard Grade. Current research at the University of Edinburgh is also covered in collaboration with FUSION; information on research in stem cells, the Large Hadron Collider, the Highland midge and Carbon Capture and Storage technology is currently included. In previous years, talks have discussed Climate change, the chemistry of the stars and survival. There are around forty-five hands-on exhibits included in the Roadshow to allow pupils to have a go at a number of scientific experiments in a short time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Science events )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sci Fun roadshow rolls into Oban High )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scottish Science and Technology Roadshow」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
