APPROACH \/ METHODOLOGY<\/b><\/p>\n

Consortium of partners will produce a Research Report which will contain the educational needs of Scientific Researchers in matter of competences and methodologies to foster their knowledge to individuals not belonging to their sector of expertise, the educational need of elder Adults in matter of scientific subjects learning and existing educational offer in the frame of Citizen Science. The Report will set the base for the development of the \u201cFrom the Laboratory to the City\u201d Training Format (TF) based on NFE, Mentoring, Co-design and\u00a0Systems Thinking modules as well as being used for the development of the IO2 \u201cScience for Active Aging\u201d Toolkit. The TF will be tested through an international Piloting JS involving Scientific Researchers. The Toolkit will be tested through a Local Programme implemented in partner country, that will be leaded by researchers and partner organizations\u2019 Trainers, involving elder adults aged 60+ in retirement. Afterwards, elder adults will be deliver the \u201cScience for All\u201d workshops implemented in each partner country with the participation of\u00a0<\/span>representative of each population band, in which they will replicate the educational workshops previously learnt. Lastly, in order to strengthen the long-term impact of the project, Consortium partner will develop the \u201cScience in your Life\u201d game APP targeted to a wider audience of users.<\/span><\/p>\n

IO 1: \u201cFrom the Laboratory to the City\u201d Training Format<\/b><\/p>\n

The Output will be a Training Format based on Non Formal Education applied to Science fields targeted at Scientific Researchers aged 35+ and conceived for an audience of educational institutions and professionals interested in conveying specific sectoral knowledge and skills towards a target group of learners that is not experienced in the topic. The format will be focused on three main areas: Non Formal Education, Mentoring and Co-design. Each one of them comprise both theoretical and practical aspects.<\/p>\n

The creation of the Format will be initiated through:<\/p>\n

– a focus group with 10 Researchers (1 focus group per each country) focused on gathering information regarding the missing skills and competences of the researchers in leading sessions with not-sectoral learners.<\/p>\n

– the analysis and selection of the best existing offer regarding the educational methodologies aimed at bringing science closer to the people outside this sector, issued by the Research Report.<\/p>\n

Research of good practices will be coordinated by WSEI, with its performance being delivered nationally by each partner.<\/p>\n

The findings of the research will be included in a final Research Report produced at the level of the Consortium, existing educational needs of elder Adults and methodological offers will find identification.<\/p>\n

\u00a0IO 2: \u201cScience for Active Aging\u201d Toolkit<\/b><\/p>\n

The Manual will be a tangible result issued from the Co-design process between Researchers and partner organizations Trainers, providing an efficient and concrete instrument targeted at elder adult learners which will be framed and structured in order for its contents to be usable and understandable for the target of Adult learners.<\/p>\n

\u00a0IO 3: \u201cScience in your Life\u201d game APP<\/b><\/p>\n

The game APP is one of project main educational elements and mean of sustainability and is expected to have a great impact towards a wide range of target groups.<\/p>\n

Target: citizens from different population bands.<\/p>\n

Access: open access.<\/p>\n

Languages: All Consortium partners national languages and English.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The game will permit the simulation of different scenarios regarding the use of science in a person daily life.<\/p>\n
