Abstract :

This paper is aimed at getting a quick overview of some important science education projects that European Schoolnet is managing in accordance with the objectives of the Lisbon declaration and with the affirmation of the European Commission that there is a need to promote more widely inquiry based science education methodologies in primary and secondary schools and to support teachers’ networks. STIENTIX is one of the most important European initiatives in the area. The development of effective and attractive STEM curricula and teaching methods, and improved teacher education and professional development are at the heart of the drive to make STEM studies and careers a more popular option for young learners. In the paper, the author’s own experience on choosing “travel well” STEM learning resources and applying them to personalise learning in Lithuanian schools is presented in terms of improving STEM learning.
