Science Inspired

Description

The goal of Science inspired was to show teachers and educators how to encourage youth over the age of 13 to deepen their knowledge and scientific interests during their visits in science centers. During the project there were study visits planned in all four partner science centers Experyment, VIDA! Agóra and NOESIS, during which in total 75 participants took part in trainings gaining knowledge and practical skills of how to use gamification, game based learning, ICT, recycling and tinkering, science performance, robotics, interactive exhibition and educational videos to create more innovative and exciting educational material for teenagers. Study visits were also a space for discussion about educational needs, challenges and (de)motivators of today’s youth, including common search for solutions, exchange of experiences and best practices.Within study visits participants created 23 short videos in which they explain scientific theories using chosen science centers' exhibits. They also developed game based tours, together with scripts for teachers how to creatively summarize their visit with the class, which are intellectual outputs of the project, designed to help teenagers explore and fully benefit from science centers exhibitions. Science Inspired project results were tested and evaluated by groups of teenagers, who have big influence on the final version of the games. Tools which are strongly connected with the exhibitions of science centers are open source, placed on the online platform and implemented to current science centers programs. Within the project, teenagers from all partner countries were also encouraged to participate in filmmaking workshops and take part in a competition for creating educational videos, where they present their own scientific interests. The video competition attracted 102 participants. Best 40 videos are posted on Science Inspired Youtube channel and the project platform.Educational tools designed within the project, in a form which is exciting for teenagers, can encourage them to develop and deepen their scientific interests.
