IDEA

In recent years , teacher have witnessed, among students, a growing lack of interest towards scientific areas that, inevitable, leads to avoid these subjects, especially Science and Maths, generally perceived as being difficult. “Our Biodiversity” is a project that aims to contribute to a change in perception by promoting a positive approach to science via a real research situation. Teachers and students will be fundamental elements in the process via the development of learning experiences, which incorporate among other strategies, the use of new technologies (including ICT – Information and Communication Technologies), real scientific situations, field trips in order to collect real information.

The whole project will be based on continuous collaborative work within each school and the European partnership that will result in workshops, presentations and peer teaching, conducted mainly by students.

To increase the value of this partnership, partners will promote training sessions for one another, which will be put in practice and tested during the project.
