PROJECT
PRIORITIES
• Citizen Science is understood as the participation of the
general public in scientific research activities in which
citizens contribute actively, either with their intellectual
effort or with the knowledge of their environment or
providing their own tools and resources.
• The centers that form the association concerned about
the low results and low motivation of their students in the
CTIM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
subjects want the Citizen Science at School (CSS) project to
bring the concept of Citizen Science to the classroom for so:
• 1 - To support the teaching staff in the incorporation
of an innovative practice (Citizen Science) that contextualize
the learning of the sciences when approaching real
investigations to the classroom. It is hoped to achieve a
higher quality teaching that will lead to a greater motivation
of the teaching staff. [PRIORITY 1]
• 2 - Addressing low achievement in CTIM subjects
through more effective and innovative teaching methods
that encourage critical thinking in students and the
acquisition of skills and competences. Participating actively
in research will not only provide experimental data to
researchers, but will enable students to acquire new skills, a
deeper understanding of scientific work and a greater
motivation to study science that will lead to improved
academic performance and scientific vocations . [PRIORITY 2]

PROJECT OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVE 1 (O1): To train
the participating teachers in
Citizen Science and
incorporate this concept into
their teaching practice
through the implementation
of pilot experiences in each
center.
OBJECTIVE 2 (O2): To
increase students'
motivation to study science
as well as scientific vocations
through their participation in
Citizen Science projects at
European level and the
realization of workshops in
each partner center that
contextualise their learning
OBJECTIVE 3 (O3): To
increase the European
dimension of the
educational community of
partner schools, promoting
the creation of a network of
centers, universities and
research organizations, with
common interests that
establish synergies to further
develop projects in the
future,
OBJECTIVE 4 (O4): To achieve
a European eTwinning
quality seal by fulfilling the 6
criteria from the Spanish NSS
