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.
The professional development program of The SciArt Project has successfully wrapped up in Greece, hosted by the University of Western Macedonia - Πανεπιστήμιο Δυτικής Μακεδονίας! Educators from across the country explored the connection between art, science, and cultural heritage, gaining insights into innovative classroom applications.
✨ Highlights of the training cycle:
🔹 Archaeometry & Cultural Heritage – Dr. Lamprini Malletzidou demonstrated how natural sciences contribute to the study and preservation of cultural artifacts.
🔹 Hands-on Exploration & Workshops – Teachers engaged with inquiry-based activities, applying transformed archaeometric methods to heritage studies.
🔹 Multimodality & Augmented Reality for Inclusion – Sessions introduced digital tools like ARTutor and StoryJumper, enhancing accessibility and engagement.
🔹 Cultural Identity & Museum Objects – Educators examined how historical artifacts shape national and European identities.
As this phase concludes, participating teachers will now implement SciArt activities in their schools, bringing interdisciplinary learning to their students. We can’t wait to see the impact of their work! 🚀
The SciArt project is moving full steam ahead! 🚀 Teachers in the partner countries are currently attending the Training Activities for Teachers and are getting ready to implement the SciArt Lesson plans with their students. ✨
In Cyprus, two out of three online training sessions have taken place with approximately 20 teachers from various specializations.
🔸Researchers from the European University Cyprus explored heritage and its link to STEAM, presenting the SciArt platform and lesson plans.
🔸Dr. Lamprini Malletzidou from Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλονίκης (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) joined to introduce archeometry and its pivotal role in the project.
🔸Project partners from The Falcon School, Nicosia and A. G. Leventis Gallery shared their experiences and future plans, while teachers exchanged ideas and received guidance.
We are looking forward to seeing the multimodal outputs that will be produced by the students!🎨🔬
