Project description
Making science education meaningful
Creating meaningful science education experiences transcends the walls of the classroom and the school. The EU-funded COSMOS project will create new partnerships within communities that can foster science education for all citizens. The goal is to encourage an ‘outwards’ mode of engagement between schools and communities. Specifically, the project will support the creation of Communities of Practice (CoP) consisting of non-formal and informal education providers, enterprises, families and other stakeholders. COSMOS will also introduce new or strengthen existing organisational structures within schools, ensuring engagement of all societal actors and enhancing students’ interest in science and science careers. The project will work closely with science teachers, providing opportunities for professional development and capacity building.
