NetsEU - A European network of experts and products for informal teaching of sciences

Picture
This project aims is to collect, elaborate, diffuse and exploit ways of applying non-formal methods and inquiry-based learning approach to science education at school.

The organisations and experts participating in the network will contribute with their examples of informal and "inquiry-based" methods that can be shared at European level and and exploited as innovative tools for science teaching.

The research, testing and evaluation of specific teaching activities will contribute to the changes and adaptation of the educational system. This will facilitate acquiring skills to motivate students to study sciences and to choose scientific careers, under the consideration of the gender difference that currently exists in this field.
