    The objective is to establish a global network of remote controlled pendulum experiments for science education purposes and capacity building in higher education.The project main innovation will consist in the deployment of a network of pendulums distributed across the world.These pendulums are therefore remote experiments will allow students/general public to directly collect data from distinct points of the globe and study the physical characteristics of our planet on their own.The pendulum experiment has always been used transversely in different school levels and contexts, due to its simplicity yet rich in scientific information, making it a great experiment to provide diversified objectives, encompassing various educational levels and for developing a project able to promote cooperation for innovation and exchange of good practices between the involved actors.Experimental apparatuses will be accessed remotely via a public web portal, enabling real-time access to the pendulums and experimental data collected, watching live videos stream and provide access to digital quality educational content, seamlessly integrated with the experiment.The main outcomes are: Establish the 1st global scope scientific remote experiment (Collecting experimental data in real time at a planetary scale; Students will be able to measure and conclude about one of earth’s physical characteristics on their own; Accessible to all students/general public via a dedicated web portal).Improving Science Education (Deliver high quality on-line remote experiments: serving education anytime, anywhere.Supporting scientific promotion by providing a modern, state-of-the-art educational asset Deliver open e/b-learning activities and supporting content); Capacity building in experimental learning (Promoting the professional development of staff and youth workers in ICT methodologies;Achieve a low-cost maintenance network, which operation and evolution can be supported sustainable by its participants)
