From 13 to 15 November 2024, the “SciArt Master Training Event” took place, a three-day training activity for Teacher Training in the framework of the European Erasmus+ SciArt programme. The Master Training, which was attended by more than 25 teachers, academics and museum professionals from three countries – Cyprus, Greece and Portugal – took place at the University of Western Macedonia in Florina.
Participants had the opportunity to exchange ideas, explore new teaching approaches and discuss strategies for their implementation in educational environments. The aim of the action was to strengthen the connection between science, technology and arts, focusing on the study of museum objects of cultural heritage, through an inclusive STEAM approach. We would like to thank all participants, partners and collaborators for their significant contribution to the success of the three-day event. The SciArt project continues to empower educators to create enriching and inclusive learning experiences.
The SciArt project is moving full steam ahead! 🚀 Teachers in the partner countries are currently attending the Training Activities for Teachers and are getting ready to implement the SciArt Lesson plans with their students. ✨
In Cyprus, two out of three online training sessions have taken place with approximately 20 teachers from various specializations.
🔸Researchers from the European University Cyprus explored heritage and its link to STEAM, presenting the SciArt platform and lesson plans.
🔸Dr. Lamprini Malletzidou from Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλονίκης (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) joined to introduce archeometry and its pivotal role in the project.
🔸Project partners from The Falcon School, Nicosia and A. G. Leventis Gallery shared their experiences and future plans, while teachers exchanged ideas and received guidance.
We are looking forward to seeing the multimodal outputs that will be produced by the students!🎨🔬
