Have you ever wondered how we can integrate Modern Physics in the school curriculum? Do you believe that exciting discoveries such as the Discovery of Gravitational Waves or the Discovery of the Higgs Boson can be brought in the classroom in a consistent and understandable fashion? The FRONTIERS Project brings together expertise from frontier scientific research and educational research in formal and informal science learning, along with user communities across Europe, in order to demonstrate
This subcommunity is dedicated to explore the topic of comets and their probable importance for life on Earth. This space will be populated with relevant tools and resources to help the construction of innovative and engaging scenarios related to comets and its exploration. This community is part of the ISE hangouts series devoted to Astronomy and Space Science. Each community has an associated hangout where Dr. Pamela Gay, renowed astronomer and educator interviews scientists involved in
Bem vindo à Comunidade FRONTIERS de Portugal! A comunidade portuguesa FRONTIERS é gerida pelo NUCLIO-Núcleo Interactivo de Astronomia e tem como objetivo oferecer aos professores um local de agregação onde podem encontrar colegas e descarregar recursos relevantes no âmbito do projeto. Alguma vez questionou como podemos integrar a Física Moderna na sala de aula? Acredita que descobertas entusiasmantes como a descoberta das Ondas Gravitacionais ou do Bosão de Higgs podem ser integradas na sua
This community brings together teachers who are using resources, virtual experiments and online labs from the fields of Astronomy and High Energy Physics (HEP). Among other activities, it offers access training, resources and to a network of robotic telescopes and the major CERN experiments, ATLAS and CMS.

This community will enable teachers, students and researchers involved in extended collaborative activities. It introducesthem to the field of science through the use of resources and tools bringing together a network of educational communities, eLearning tools and resources and relevant partners of the field. Through the Inspiring Science Education website and the activities organised by the partners, teachers can help students make their own scientific discoveries, witness and understand
Our universe started as a fog of particles, but slight variations in density allowed the formation of stars, galaxies, and the large-scale structures of the universe. In this Hangout we’ll discuss early structure formation and fast forward to today’s stars with planets. This community is part of the collection of communities created in the framework of Inspiring Science Education Hangout Series. Each community has an associated hangout where Dr. Pamela Gay, renowed astronomer and educator
