The Living Field CD was developed by scientists from SCRI in collaboration with Mylnefield Trust, Learning and Teaching Scotland, Scottish Executive Education Department and other Scottish educational organisations and teachers. The CD was distributed to all schools in Scotland and can be freely copied for educational use.

The CD contains more than 300 pages of high quality images, sounds, games, and activity sheets designed to enhance and enrich pupils’ knowledge and interest. It is linked to the 5-14 curriculum.
