Description

FRONTIERS Online Summer School 2020

The FRONTIERS e-Summer School is an online training course for science teachers motivated to introduce Nobel Prize Physics to their Classrooms. Its objectives are:

The introduction of the participants to the FRONTIERS pedagogical design and its proposed activities for bringing Nobel Prize Physics to the classroom.
The co-creation of a series of educational activities by the teachers in collaboration with their peers and FRONTIERS experts that will be shared to all schools in Europe.
The discussion of the merits and barriers of introducing Nobel Prize Physics to the Classroom and presentation of the FRONTIERS methodology to achieve that.

FRONTIERS is a EU funded project coordinated by a consortium of European institutions in the field of research in Physics, Science Education Research, and education and outreach networks.

The FRONTIERS e- Summer School is organized under the auspices of the European School Innovation Academy (ESIA) and is supported by the REINFORCE EU project.
