  1. SCIENTIX WORKSHOP: • Activities on sharing STEM / Scientix resources that could be applied in eTwinning projects Dr. ÀguedaGras-Velázquez, Victor J. Pérez-Rubio & Prof.Albert Gras i Martí 08/06/2012

  2. European Schoolnet (EUN) Promoting the use of ICT and digital technologies in the classroom Promoting the European dimension in schools Network of 30 Ministriesof Education in Europe Improving the quality of education in Europe Three areas of interest: • services to schools, • research and innovation, • sharing of learning resources

  3. European Schoolnet (EUN) – Science Team 3

  4. Workshop overview Workshop 1  Tools (prezi, etc)  How Workshop 2  Resources / materials  What Workshop 3  Connect to TwinSpace  How

  5. Workshop overview

  6. Let’s have an EDUCAMP

  7. Let’s have an EDUCAMP • EDUCAMP: Share knowledge and experiences • Experiences, resources, and materials for STEM classes: • ICT resources for teaching (simulations,...) • eTwinning and other collaborative projects • We need: • a PC for every 3-4 teachers. • adhesive labels and a pen

  8. Let’s have an EDUCAMP • Prepare your label: • Write down the materials, resources or experiences that you are familiar with (e.g., simulations, specific eTwinning projects, materials, lab equipment...) and stick it on your shirt. • Look around for what might interest you. • - Ask her/him to explain briefly how they used the materials, resources, experiences (with the help of the PC if applicable).

  24. Teachers may use ICT... Alone Teachers may feel quite isolated! Communicated Comunicating For professional development Pedagogical innovation. Question common teaching practices.

  25. ICT allow: elaborating adapting actualizing ... permanently (in real time) of “textbooks” (teaching material): digital collective personalized & also the interaction: pupil-teacher pupil-pupil pupil- T/L proces Educational materials: coelaborated, actualized & shared Question habitual teaching practices! Pedagogical innovation!

  26. Projects: examples A quite simple example: Cover an object and guess! The many languages of Science Debates online and anaylisis the structure of the contributions Finding misconceptions in students, textbooks, webpages, etc. Projects on simulations ...

  27. Example of a Simple Project: what is hidden inside?

  32. Another example: Find misconceptions, errata... in textbooks, websites, wikipedia, etc. Contrary to what textbooks say ... the Sun does not rise in the East

  39. Conference 2011 Portal Workshops

  40. Scientix workshops Aim: Present, share, highlight and inspire good practices, linked to the specific content offered by Scientix and take into account the latest development in the field of science and maths education and the results produced by EU funded projects. * GIREP 2010, Reins, France: Teaching and Learning Physics today: Challenges? Benefits? * Eminent 2010, Copenhagen, Denmark:The community for science education in Europe after 6 months running *eTwinning Conference 2011, Budapest, Hungary: Part 1: Introduction to Moodle; Part2: Use of Moodle in science education * Pathway summer school 2011, Heraklion, Crete:OpenID, resources and Moodle *Spice summer academy 2011, Prague, Czech Republic: Wikis & Tops, Circle-makers and Augmented reality and UDiF: The theatre of physics • *Establish conference 2012, Dublin, Ireland:Scientix, Moodle and hands-on workshops • *eTwinning PDW 2012 Druskininkai, Lithuania:Activities on sharing STEM / Scientix resources that could be applied in etwinningprojects And more to come!
