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
In August 1912, Austrian physicist Victor Hess made a historic balloon flight that opened a new window on matter in the universe. As he ascended to 5300 metres, he measured the rate of ionization in the atmosphere and found that it increased to some three times that at sea level. He concluded that penetrating radiation was entering the atmosphere from above. He had discovered cosmic rays.These high-energy particles arriving from outer space are mainly (89%) protons – nuclei of hydrogen, the
Welcome to the CREATIONS community How can young people’s interest in science be increased? 16 partners from ten European countries want to break new ground. In CREATIONS, a project funded by the European Union, they develop creative approaches based on art for an engaging science classroom. The CREATIONS community portal creates a vital environment of innovative approaches, activities and resources for teachers and students towards Scientific Research. All tools hosted in this portal are based

"Hunting the Ghost Particles" The performance ID for the CREATIONS SUMMER SCHOOL 2016 Duration: approx. 30 min. The concept “Hunting the Ghost Particles” is the title of the event that will be presented on July 7th based on the concept of understanding the so-called “ghost particles”. A stage performance and a mini “science café”, both accompanied with live music, will be included in the event. All participants will contribute in the preparation, production, finalization and performance of this
“CREATIONS Summer School 2018 - Developing an engaging classroom” The CREATIONS Summer School 2018 which will take place at Marathon, Greece on 08/07/2018– 13/07/2018 introduces innovative approaches and activities that involve teachers and students in Scientific Research through creative ways that are based on Art. The Courses focus on the development of effective links and synergies between schools and research infrastructures in order to spark young people’s interest in science and in
This community is build around the CREATIONS Summer School in Mesini. The demonstrator hosted in this community serves as a global demonstrator for every summer school activity of the project. Link to official website of CREATIONS Summer school at Messini:http://messini.ea.gr/ You can find the summer school demonstrator here.
Welcome to the CREATIONS Academy.Here you can find resources to help you define and plan creative science teaching and learning, including good practice examples, planning, workshopping activities and teaching resources, including approaches to Inquiry Based Science Education.

Climate change is a global environmental problem and is linked to many issues in the science.In the scenario entitled "The planet at risk!: The climate change is colorful with creativity and optimistic about multidisciplinary solutions. Young Climate Change Scientists explore & decide with creativity & responsibility "is characterized by: • Learning based on research (IBSL) • Interdisciplinary approach to STEM courses. By translating and adapting the STEM acronym to this teaching scenario we try
How can the combination of science and the arts infuse creativity into the school science classroom? CREATIONS, a three-year project funded under the Horizon 2020 Framework of the European Union, is answering exactly that question. The project is dedicated to developing an engaging science classroom by incorporating creative and art-based approaches into STEM education. The ideas and activities that originate in CREATIONS serve as learning resources for school teachers, helping them enhance
Welcome to the Creative Science Classroom! Our goal is strengthening Creativity in Science Education. Join us on this exciting journey by exploring innovative, creative teaching materials in one of these Case Studies: Science Theater (ST), Junior Science Café (JSC) and Write a Science Opera (WASO). The Creative Science Classroom will be enriched with more cases in the near future.

Our community is created for presenting our attempts to get kids acquainted with physics and by using interactive ways we try to make this field more fascinating for them through workshops and presentations at hotels and schools of our region.
The D.O.M.E. project (Design your Own Multimedia learning Environment) aims to empower students by involving them in building a low-cost planetarium system and developing presentations that will engage the local community and allow them to benefit from the planetarium and its associated resources. This DIY planetarium will provide for the students the opportunity to increase their competence profiles as well as the science capital of their community and the scientific reasoning and awareness of
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.
