At the design and technology exhibition i picked up a smart materials catalogue and some samples of UV beads and glow in the dark thread. I was surprised at how low cost the materials were as I imagined them to be rather expensive? It was interesting to see how smart and modern materials are being introduced to into the classroom and the type of projects which could incorporate them. This sort of thing was never shown to me at school which is probably why I am still stuck on wood, metal and plastic.
I also acquired some sources to buy smart materials which would be handy for future reference, especially for next year.
