Description
Established in October 2003 in the frames of the Comenius 3 action of the Socrates program of the European Commission, the European Network “Hands-on Science” developed since then a vast range of activities towards a better Science Education in European Schools. Our main goal is the promotion and development of Science Education and scientific literacy in Europe. We aim to generalise innovate and improve Science & Technology teaching at basic vocational training and secondary schools by hands-on experimental practice in the classroom. Bringing hands-on active learning of Science into the classroom and into the soul and spirit of the school. The network, established now as an International Association, enrols as institutional or individual members, over two hundreds schools, several universities, national and international associations, governmental bodies, science centres and museums, NGO’s and companies of practically all countries of the European Union and from all over the world.
