Clive Oppenheimer, a volcanologist, demonstrates his work at Mount Etna. Clive is an expert in developing new techniques for monitoring volcanoes, and works with scientists around the world. It's a difficult job, because most of the activity happens deep below ground. To look at how the latest techniques are developing, he takes a trip up Etna to collect fresh lava samples, then heads to the Institute of Volcanology (INGV), about 20 km away, to analyse some of the new data.

Good video with links to how science works, using real scientists to help students understand the applications of science in the real world. At 13 minutes long it would be a good clip to use along side teaching about volcanoes in key stage 4 to help students see the relevance.
