| Futureproof is part
of a suite of new media products produced by Keele as part of our
widening participation programme. The idea behind using new media
is to enable us to educate large numbers of school pupils (and their
parents) about higher education opportunities, with the aim of raising
aspirations. Having a free resource for each secondary school Key
Stage helps schools to build HE information into their curricula
and helps to normalise the idea of HE in the minds of pupils.
UNIWORLD
This was the first new media resource produced at Keele, completed
in 2001. UniWorld is a CD-ROM for schools aimed at KS3 pupils. The
networkable CD is available free to schools meeting WP criteria.
UniWorld is also available to other HEIs or Aimhigher areas under
licence - please contact
us for information.

IN THE PICTURE
In the Picture is a free DVD about higher education for parents
whose children are in school years 9, 10 or 11. It is available
free of charge to parents in Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire. Please
email the In the Picture
team for more information.
NEW DEVELOPMENTS
We are currently developing a CD-ROM resource for KS5, also funded
under the HE Full Circle project. This resource should be available
late 2005.
In 2006 we plan to develop a CD-ROM resource for teachers.
