For which objectives? • To create during the European Science and Technology Week 2003 a combination of events • To make pupils familiar with science and technology • To design and diffuse pedagogic tools and methods to increase awareness of science and technology
How and When ? Two stages: • Preparatory stage: preparation of various tools and instruments on the basis of scenarios • Operation stage (Sept-Nov 2003): several thematic workshops in intermediate classes + final exhibition + final seminar
Which Contents ? 4 thematic workshops : • Beyond Objects • Intelligent Home • Domestic Automatism • Future Home
