Discover all the implementation stories of the Three Rs project
The Three Rs Project – Replacement, Reduction and Refinement of animal use in science – has developed new materials for primary and secondary school teachers, which were implemented by 50 teachers from 18 different countries. Some of them, shared their impressions from teaching the Three Rs topics and how their students reacted to the new material. They also shared with us their experience and recommendations on integrating the topic into the subject taught. Please, check the implementation stories and videos prepared by our teachers. In addition, you can read the stories of experience, developed by some of the Three Rs Lead Teachers.
We hope those stories will inspire you to implement your own Three Rs lessons. To access the Three Rs educational resources, please, visit the Three Rs project page and select the topic of learning scenario or an additional resource that fits your subject and interests.
