The Science-Teacher Education Advanced Methods project

The S-TEAM project, under FP7's SiS 2008 initiative, aims to revolutionize science education in Europe by enhancing motivation and learning among pupils. It empowers teachers to adopt inquiry-based teaching methods through comprehensive training and access to innovative, research-based practices. The project encompasses various work packages focusing on management, policy interactions, collaboration among teachers, professional development, and effective use of scientific discourse. A wide array of deliverables, including workshops, training packages, and guidelines, support the goal of improved science teaching.
