STEMMOS

The STEMMOS project aims to develop an educational program that equips trainers with the knowledge and tools to teach EMMO science (European Materials Modelling Ontology) while enhancing both STEAM and soft skills among students. The project promotes innovative teaching methods, hands-on learning, and broad dissemination at the European level.

Key Objectives:

• Train educators in EMMO science through best practices and innovative pedagogy.
• Deliver a structured training program for trainers and pilot sessions for students.
• Foster the development of students' STEAM-related competencies and transversal skills.
• Design and implement an experiential space science festival.
• Ensure sustainability and European-level uptake through strategic dissemination.

Main Activities:

• Development of an educational framework and pedagogical materials.
• Creation of a MOOC with four EMMO-focused training modules.
• Delivery of a training program involving ten sessions and a summer school.
• Launch of the STEMMOS Hub, an online platform offering tools, games, and robotics content.
• Organization of space science festivals in Ireland and Greece.
• Community building through a website and a trainers’ platform.

Expected Impact:

• Engagement of 360 trainers and 500 students across Europe.
• Enhanced teacher competence and student interest in science and technology.
• Wider adoption of the program through open resources and dissemination efforts.
