Communication in Science - Teaching and communication methodologies for disseminating scientific knowledge

This project is a response to address the decline of uptake of science subjects at schools and subsequently at university. New contents and findings particularly point out to the need for new training of professionals in using informal methods of teaching in science, rather than disciplinary and formal methods. The project goal is to develop, through a pilot action, a European model of intervention for the communication of science subjects based on informal teaching methods. The target groups include research, arts and academic professionals who are called upon to support a process of knowledge transfer to visitors (generally children and young people) in settings such as science and technology museums and science centres and who thus take on the role of educators in a non-formal learning context. Results will be available on DVD and also through the project website.
