  3. Project Framework

  4. Write a Science Opera (WASO) is… • A multi-disciplinary teaching concept based onthe ”professionaldevelopment” Write an Opera method. In WASO,scientists and opera artists workwith teachers/pupils to create original science operas: Ownershipofcreative science and art output.

  7. Professor Carl Pennypacker,University of Berkeley, somerlederiIKT iLæringnettverket Global Hands on Universe (www.handsonuniverse.org) skriverfølgende om «SkyLight» prosjektet: “In a time when our world Governments seem to be not acting very carefully or rationally, it is so important for projects like Skylight to come to fruition! To me, Skylight, if I might take a verbal liberty here, is a fantastic example of "Crowd-Sourced World Peace and Cooperation." That is, you have discovered a way of using the Internet for all people on our planet to work together to inspire, educate, and lift us all above our self-imposed limits and oppression by others.  Certainly one of the spiritual foundations of Global HOU/GTTP is that all Earthlings learn to work together to study the stars”.

  12. WASO Training MaterialsStrengthening/Supporting Creative Activities in an Inquiry-Based Science Education Model (Cosmos Project, EU) • Phase 1 -Questions Eliciting Curiosity • Phase 2 -Active Investigation: Propose preliminary explanations or hypotheses • Phase 3 - Creation: Gather evidence from observation • Phase 4 - Discussion: Explanation based on evidence • Phase 5 - Reflection: Communicate explanation

  13. Analysis by Prof. Marianne Ødegaard, Forskningsleder, Naturfagsenteret, UiO (2)

  14. CREAT-IT proposes the following working definition for creativity in science education: Generating ideas and strategies as an individual or community, reasoning critically between these and producing plausible explanations and strategies consistent with the available evidence. Such scientific creativity as fuelled by ‘little c’ creativity, i.e. purposive and imaginative activity generating outcomes that are original and valuable in relation to the learner. - from the CREAT-IT Pedagogical Framework Deliverable D2.1
