Design of Inclusive and Out-of-School Educational Activities
Since 2018, the project has aimed to provide high-quality, inclusive, and engaging science education in the STEM field. It proposes and designs teaching strategies using EAS, IBSE, and flipped classroom methods. Special attention is given to sustainability education in line with Target 4.7 of the UN 2030 Agenda and the effectiveness of field activities.
