Description:Students build a programmable, self-driving car, such as the Google Autonomous Car. Then the students have to drive through the green wave without stopping, as fast as possible. Students discover concepts like speed, acceleration, relationships, vectors and...
Descriptor: career education, educational sciences, equal opportunities
Description:This document constitutes a specific mapping of how gender is addressed in the current STEM curricula in 14 EU countries. It is based on analysis of the official 9th grade curricula for physics and biology for the 14 countries, and informed by official...
Descriptor: career education, educational sciences, equal opportunities
Description:This report concerns a number of gender-inclusive science education activities designed by European science centres, museums, research institutions, industrial institutions, and other science education institutions. The 49 science education activities were...
Descriptor: career education, educational sciences, equal opportunities
Description:This document critically discusses the reasons why present-day science education does not attract the required diversity of youth to STEM study programmes. These reasons include the implicit gendering of STEM, which presupposes certain types of learners to...
