This activity involved the creation of a short 3-minute video, complete with images and a script, offering a simple and reusable explanation of Bayes' theorem through an intuitive everyday example. The video clearly breaks down the core steps of Bayesian thinking: establishing our prior knowledge, observing new data, updating our beliefs, and evaluating how the final assessment changes in light of the new evidence. This animation was produced by Futurum Careers, a free online resource and magazine aimed at encouraging 14-to-19-year-olds worldwide to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, maths and medicine (STEM), and social sciences, humanities and the arts for people and the economy (SHAPE): futurumcareers.com)
