The overall objective of the Project is to increase students' interest in launching studies in sciences and natural sciences.

The final product:

2) The computer system based on a core curriculum that will help teachers in the holistic identification of issues similar or converging to discussed by them at a particular lesson.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
