SUMMARY:ENSITE Summer School in Bulgaria\, Varna\, July 31th - August 11th 2022
DESCRIPTION:Dealing with environmental issues in science education – Deeping future science and maths teachers’ learning by teaching\nIntensive programmes for higher education learners\nOrganized by the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics at the Bulgarian Academy of Science (IMI-BAS) \nVenue: Bulgaria\, Varna \nDuration: 12 days \nObjectives\nThe aim of this summer school is to provide future teachers with experience in teaching small groups of high school students with specific STEM interests and in introducing environmental SSI. It will allow participants to learn (gaining knowledge\, skills and competences) but also to gain experiences in teaching. In addition\, they will not only learn about teaching concepts but will be able to try them out in a realistic context. This will be achieved through inviting high-school students (from regional schools) to serve as test group. \nTarget groups:\n\nScience and maths ITE students\nPhD students in STEM fields\nHigh school students interested in working on projects related to environmental socio-scientific concepts\n\nAll target groups learn about environmental SSI\, future teachers gain knowledge on pedagogical concepts\, widen their teaching scope and have the possibility to actively teach students and PhD students gain experience in both aspects and can elaborate on how gained knowledge might contribute to their research work. \nProcedures and workflow\nThe summer school will be set up following a format that has been refined during the last two decades in the annual summer school of the IMI High School Students\, subsidiary of IMI-BAS. The experience of IMI-BAS has shown that future teachers like to work with high school students and value the teaching experience. In turn\, each future teacher will get support from experienced educators\, who will oversee the process\, provide useful advice and held seminars on relevant topics. \nThe event will start with several days of training for participants\, where they will be introduced to our IOs. The HE students will then work individually or in small groups to design lessons introducing SSI research topics.  The summer school will end up with the future teachers presenting their work by teaching high school students the lessons designed in the previous stage. Finally\, participants and experienced educators will present and discuss their observations in a workshop\, highlighting good practices and important challenges\, along with suitable strategies for addressing them. \nVenue\nThe summer school will be held at the Conference and Recreation Centre of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (also known as Creativity House of BAS) in Varna\, Bulgaria\, from July 31st to August 11th\, 2022. Referred to as the marine capital of Bulgaria\, Varna is the third-largest city in the country and the largest seaside resort on the Black Sea Coast. It is a major economic\, social and cultural centre. \nA social cultural programme tailored to enrich the experience of the participants will be provided. Half-day trips to sites of cultural and/or scientific importance will be included\, as well as shorter visits to relevant exhibitions and museums. \nThe organisers will issue a certificate for each student and each future teacher\, describing the scope of the activity and the attained learning outcome. Suitable assessment tools will be developed both for the students and the mentors. It is intended that participants will get 3 ECTS points. \nShare this post

SUMMARY:Physics as You Do Not Know It
DESCRIPTION:The summer camp ‘Physics as you do not know it’ aims at bringing new perspectives and strengthening positive attitudes towards physics among the girls. We consider the overarching topic of the FAJN 2022 ‘Optics’\, to have a great potential to attract girls. \nThe light as a spectrum of colours and optical principles of sight and eye-disorders will be in the focus of the summer school. The optical principles and properties of colours will be studied simultaneously with principles of mixing colours in visual arts\, including applied arts (fashion\, design). Besides that\, geometrical optics and its application in medicine\, especially ophthalmology will be inquired. Participating girls will investigate the human eye as a lens and the impact of changes of the lens to eye-disorders. \nDuring the summer school\, the participating girls will become familiar also with photometric. They will investigate illumination and its impacts of ergonomics and therefore interior design and marketing. \nContact Person: Sona Ceretkova at sceretkova@ukf.sk \nShare this post

SUMMARY:Scientific Excursion around Sustainable World
DESCRIPTION:The central theme of the summer school is sustainable development. Sustainability has three main pillars: economic\, environmental\, and social.  The sustainable development goals are universal call to action to end poverty\, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of everyone\, everywhere. For this reason\, sustainable development is part of the education of most countries around the world. The GEM summer school focuses on presenting the role of science and research in fulfilling the economic\, environmental\, and social goals of sustainable development. The summer school includes outdoor STEM activities\, the use of information and communication technology for simulations and modelling of processes in the landscape and group work\, students’ projects\, based on the principles of inquiry based learning. The environmental goals of sustainable development are in the focus of the summer school. Participants\, teenager girls\, will gain knowledge that will help them realize the role of the individual and his conscious steps in the sustainability of life in their surroundings\, region and on the planet. The topics that the girls will address in their projects will teach them to understand the context of human activities with respect to the environment\, the protection of plant and animal species and to consider and process information in a scientific context. The acquired knowledge and skills will enable girls to prepare activities aimed at sustainable development for their children’s and adult clients in tourism. \nContact Person: Sona Ceretkova sceretkova@ukf.sk \nShare this post

SUMMARY:Smart City
DESCRIPTION:“The Smart City 2022” Summer School continues the idea of previous Summer Schools – see STEM from a different\, unprecedented perspective\, be curious\, creative and entrepreneurial in designing your life and your vision of a smart city. \nThe main questions we will seek to answer through the school’s activities are: how do smart technologies create a convenient life? Why STEM + business = innovation? \nThe Summer School activities should spark curiosity and a desire to create smart environments for ourselves and for people. The girls will learn by asking questions\, finding creative solutions and working together with the school’s faculty and university researchers. The main goal of the school activities is to develop the girls in STEM fields\, to experience a sense of success in the “here and now” by designing and creating a mini project with Arduino\, to motivate them to go deeper into STEM and entrepreneurship\, to spark their curiosity to question\, to go deeper\, to explore\, and to create in the pursuit of new values. \nContact Person: Asta Meškauskienė at asta.meskauskiene@fsf.vu.lt \nShare this post

SUMMARY:Teknikkollo
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of Teknikkollo is to inspire young people to technology\, give technical self-confidence and\, in the longer term\, contribute to a well-thought-out high school choice. Sweden needs a lot of manpower with technical skills going forward and we must all contribute to this! In addition\, Sweden needs to level the gender-segregated labour market. \nIn Teknikkollo we will teach in programming\, 3D modelling\, 3D printing and use laser cutters as well as several maker moments with electronics as well as programming robots. Our idea is that we teach basics\, show possible prototypes they can try to make but that their interest and curiosity will make them later develop their own products based on their own ideas. The whole process is the instructors there and lead them to progress. We will program with Microbits and build products controlled by Microbits. The participants are encouraged to create complex products where they use knowledge from several different new technologies they learned during the week. We have a lot of materials\, tools\, and knowledge so there are great opportunities to pursue their production ideas. The instructors also serve as good role models for choosing technology and science education. They talk about their experiences\, feelings and thoughts about the technology and contexts they have come in contact. In the end of the week they are going to create a simple video to show what they accomplished during the week. \nTeknikkollo is free for the participants and they are all allowed to bring a lot of thing home in the end of the camp\, etc Microbit. This camp will hopefully be a unique experience of science and technology with other young people. Our idea is that it should not end with the camp but that a genuine interest in technology develops. \nContact Person  Linda Samuelsson Linda.samuelsson@jonkoping.se \n  \nShare this post

SUMMARY:STEMkey's 4th Transnational Project Meeting
DESCRIPTION:During this meeting\, the main focus is on finding solutions to assess STEM key competences in classroom settings. Assessment methods are of high importance\, as only when teachers are enabled to assess learners’ performances upon completion of any given task/subject lesson/programme can they realistically implement these activities in their classrooms. Key competences pose a particular challenge here\, as key competences are a combination fo knowledge\, skills and attitudes. Whereas knowledge bits have been assessed for ages\, this does not apply to skills and least of all attitudes in STEM education so far. \nShare this post

SUMMARY:PBE 2021 - Project-based education and other activating strategies in science education
DESCRIPTION:Pre-service training is crucial to promote innovative educational approaches. Research has shown that\, activating strategies – such as project-based and inquiry-based teaching and learning – need to be trained in pre-service teacher training\, as teachers who have not experienced and practiced it\, will unlikely apply such strategies in their future practice. \nAt the same time\, it seems that applying these strategies requires gradual steps. Students need to develop a growing autonomy of their own learning step by step. From the teachers’ competences point of view it is important to choose appropriate amount of scaffolding and its successive decreasing. \nPBE conference has actively supported future and practicing STEM teachers for a decade\, come and join our journey! \nPBE 2021 is organised by and at the Department of Chemistry and Chemistry Education\, Faculty of Education\, Charles University\, Czech Republic\, with support of other STEM teacher training experts. \nThe STEMkey project will contribute to the conference with its latest insight into competence-based and interdisciplinary STEM education. \n  \nShare this post
