With Europe's shortage of STEM skilled labour force, there is a real need for innovative approaches to demystify science, increase the motivation of the pupils towards STEM subjects and offer teacher training into new ways of introducing science in the classroom.
STEMProjects
The Schools Tune Into Mars (STIM) project aims to improve effective and quality teaching of mathematics, science, engineering and technology (STEM) disciplines at secondary level and to increase young Europeans' knowledge, skills and interest in STEM education.
STEMSTE(A)M Learning Ecologies (SLEs) is an EU-funded project (Horizon Europe) developing engaging open schooling-enabled science learning paths for all in learning continuums of formal and informal learning environments that are also focusing on inclusiveness.
STEMThe overall objective of the 21st Century European Teachers project (Teacher Academy project XXI-TEACH-EU), funded by Erasmus + programme, is to gain insight into how European teachers can approach and develop teaching in emerging subject areas (Technological empowerment, Sustainable learning, Entrepreneurship, Playful learning), that arise as a result of large complex upheavals affecting society e.g., climate changes and the ubiquitous digital development.
Professional DevelopmentTeachers are key drivers of change in Europe's education and society as a whole, playing a pivotal role in the successful implementation of the European Commission's Digital Education Action Plan. ContinueUP, supports the effective continued development of European teachers across their entire professional career, from initial teacher education to continuous teacher training.
Professional DevelopmentChildren and young people go online virtually every day. International data on children and online media is extensive, heterogeneous and partly contradictory.
Digital CitizenshipAugmented Reality (AR) is at the forefront of the debate on how to improve education with the use of new technologies. As Europe is set to become a global leader in VR and AR, Augmented Reality is considered to be one of the candidates for the education of the future.
InnovationThe Youth Skills (ySKILLS) project aims to better understand the role of digital skills in the life of children and the effect those skills have on their wellbeing, education and social life.
Digital CitizenshipThe Teach Europe Project aims to strengthen the pedagogical offer on the topics of European citizenship and the European Union; to upskill teachers by providing them with innovative learning scenarios to implement an EU perspective across the curriculum; and to give the opportunity to students to learn more about the EU, to think critically about their European identity and to explore active citizenship.
