À medida que o projeto SciArt entra na sua fase final, celebramos a conclusão bem-sucedida das nossas atividades piloto, os inspiradores eventos multiplicadores realizados no Chipre, Grécia e Portugal, e o lançamento iminente da nossa publicação académica. Educadores, estudantes, investigadores e profissionais da cultura juntaram-se para explorar de que forma a ciência e a arte podem encontrar-se criativamente na sala de aula — e para além dela.
🎨 Formação de Professores & Atividades-Piloto em Três Países
Um total de noventa e sete (97) professores dos países parceiros concluiu a fase piloto do curso de formação SciArt para educadores! A formação, que combinou sessões presenciais com aprendizagem online, teve uma duração entre 25 e 29 horas em cada país. Os professores receberam recursos práticos e planos de aula desenvolvidos no âmbito do projeto SciArt e foram apoiados na aplicação direta desta abordagem nas suas salas de aula. Na fase final da formação, os professores implementaram atividades SciArt com os seus alunos, oferecendo-lhes uma forma envolvente de explorar a ciência através da expressão artística. Como etapa final, os alunos criaram projetos digitais multimodais e enriquecidos com realidade aumentada (RA), inspirados nos artefactos selecionados que estudaram. Estes resultados criativos, juntamente com todos os materiais educativos, estão agora disponíveis no site do projeto para que todos possam explorar e utilizar.
📣 Eventos Multiplicadores: Partilhar & Inspirar
Após a fase piloto, os parceiros no Chipre, Grécia e Portugal organizaram eventos multiplicadores locais para apresentar os resultados e chegar a comunidades educativas e culturais mais alargadas. Estes eventos proporcionaram espaços de diálogo, reflexão e novas colaborações interdisciplinares, dando simultaneamente a professores e alunos a oportunidade de partilhar as suas experiências com a abordagem SciArt. Foram verdadeiros momentos de orgulho e inspiração!
O último marco do projeto é um artigo académico que resume a experiência do consórcio na implementação de atividades inclusivas e baseadas na investigação STEAM, aplicadas à educação em património cultural. Esta publicação destaca como a fusão entre ciência e arte pode promover o pensamento crítico, a criatividade e competências transdisciplinares entre os estudantes — capacitando-os para se envolverem de forma mais profunda tanto com contextos científicos como culturais. Prevê-se que o artigo seja publicado até ao final de setembro.
🌐 Mantenha-se Conectado
Embora o projeto esteja a chegar ao fim, o seu legado está apenas a começar. O site e os canais de redes sociais do SciArt permanecem ativos e cheios de materiais valiosos para educadores, investigadores e profissionais da cultura. Fique atento — e se o nosso trabalho o inspira, não hesite em partilhá-lo com os seus colegas e redes!
SciArt Master Training Event
De 13 a 15 de novembro de 2024, teve lugar o “SciArt Master Training Event”, uma atividade de formação de três dias para a Formação de Professores no âmbito do programa europeu Erasmus+ SciArt. A Master Training, que contou com a participação de mais de 25 professores, académicos e profissionais de museus de três países – Chipre, Grécia e Portugal – teve lugar na Universidade da Macedónia Ocidental, em Florina.
Os participantes tiveram a oportunidade de trocar ideias, explorar novas abordagens de ensino e discutir estratégias para a sua implementação em ambientes educativos. O objetivo da ação era reforçar a ligação entre ciência, tecnologia e artes, centrando-se no estudo de objectos museológicos do património cultural, através de uma abordagem STEAM inclusiva. Gostaríamos de agradecer a todos os participantes, parceiros e colaboradores pelo seu contributo significativo para o sucesso do evento de três dias. O projeto SciArt continua a capacitar os educadores para criarem experiências de aprendizagem enriquecedoras e inclusivas.
On June 20, the SciArt partners gathered in Thessaloniki, Greece, for the final sustainability meeting, kindly hosted by Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλονίκης (AUTH).
This was the last in-person meeting of the consortium as the SciArt Project heads toward its conclusion. All project partners came together to present the work carried out so far, coordinate the remaining tasks and activities, and plan the final steps to bring the project to a successful close.
A big part of the discussions focused on the sustainability action plan — how each partner will continue to use and share the SciArt outputs after the project ends — and the development of the final academic article.
It was a meaningful wrap-up moment to reflect on our collaboration, celebrate what we’ve achieved together, and ensure SciArt’s impact will continue. 🌿✨

On June 12, as part of the European Archaeology Days, the Municipality of Esposende hosted a SciArt Day at the Museum at the Castro de S. Lourenço and its Interpretive Center. Over 280 students and teachers came together to discover how archaeology connects us to our common past and how art and science together can inspire a fairer and more sustainable future.
During this special day, teachers and students who participated in the SciArt pilot project shared their work and experiences, showcasing the creative power of combining science and art.
A big thank you to everyone who made SciArt Day at the Museum such a success and helped celebrate our shared heritage! 🌍✨

SciArt Day at the Museum - 'Showcasing the Fusion of Science and Art'🎨🔬🏛️
On Thursday, May 22th, we gathered at the Leventis Municipal Museum of Nicosia for a truly special celebration of creativity, collaboration, and learning. 💫
We were moved and inspired by the amazing presentations from the teachers who brought SciArt to life in their classrooms. They shared not only the creative activities they implemented with their students, but also the heart and passion behind each project. 💖
It was a deeply emotional and rewarding experience to catch a glimpse of the incredible work done across schools — from scientific explorations to artistic interpretations, all beautifully rooted in heritage and imagination. 🌿✨
A huge thank you to every single teacher, student, and anyone who made this journey possible. You reminded us why this work matters. 🙏

Λίγα λόγια για το πρόγραμμα SciArt
Το SciArt είναι ένα ευρωπαϊκό πρόγραμμα Erasmus+ που στοχεύει στην καλλιέργεια δεξιοτήτων του 21ου αιώνα, όπως η δημιουργικότητα, η συνεργασία, η επίλυση προβλημάτων και η πολιτισμική κατανόηση, μέσω της σύνδεσης Τέχνης και Επιστήμης (STEAM) με την πολιτιστική κληρονομιά. Δίνει έμφαση στη συμπερίληψη, την πολυτροπικότητα και την ενεργό συμμετοχή μαθητών και μαθητριών.
Κεντρικό στοιχείο του προγράμματος αποτελεί η αξιοποίηση αρχαιομετρικών μεθόδων. Η αρχαιομετρία είναι ο διεπιστημονικός κλάδος που χρησιμοποιεί μεθόδους των Φυσικών Επιστημών για τη μελέτη, ανάλυση και χρονολόγηση αρχαιολογικών ευρημάτων και πολιτιστικών αντικειμένων με στόχο την καλύτερη κατανόηση της προέλευσης, της τεχνολογίας κατασκευής και της αυθεντικότητας των αντικειμένων, συμβάλλοντας έτσι στην προστασία, κατανόηση και ανάδειξη της πολιτιστικής κληρονομιάς.
Το Πανεπιστήμιο μας συμμετέχει ενεργά στο πρόγραμμα ως εταίρος, αναπτύσσοντας εκπαιδευτικό υλικό και υποστηρίζοντας τη συνεργασία μεταξύ σχολικών και ακαδημαϊκών κοινοτήτων σε Ελλάδα, Κύπρο και Πορτογαλία.
Σας περιμένουμε με χαρά!
