Involvement in Science in School

We welcome the involvement of everyone who is interested in European science education. Below are some ways in which you might like to get involved. Feel free to contact us with other ideas. For Science in School to be a success, we need the involvement of enthusiastic science teachers. There are many ways in which you can join and help: you can submit your own articles on teaching activities you have developed, tell us about science education projects you are involved in, join our panel of referees, write reviews of books or other resources, or perhaps translate articles from English into your native language for publication online, so that other teachers in your country can read and use them, too. See our guidelines for authors, the referee panel, book reviewers or translators. Don't be shy - not all our articles arrive in flawless English - if the idea is good, we're happy to help, even though we can unfortunately not accept submissions in any other language. Or why not team up with an English language teacher colleague from your school? And of course, we would like you to tell your friends and colleagues about Science in School. Do you know of a particularly inspiring colleague? Why not suggest him or her for a teacher portrait in Science in School?! And if you're looking for collaboration partners, want to share your ideas or discuss with colleagues around the world, join our online discussion forum! Do you enjoy communicating science not only to other research scientists, but to the public? It's especially important to put teachers and students up to date on what's happening in science. Would you like to try your hand at it? We are looking for good overview articles on cutting-edge developments in science, or reviews of current topics in science. So if you'd like to have a go at explainig your own research work, have read a particularly interesting scientific paper or know of a topic that would be interesting to discuss in the classroom, we're looking forward to your article submissions. Guidelines for authors are available here. Alternatively, we would be very grateful if you could help us by translating articles from English into your native language for online publication to make them available to as many readers as possible. See here for details. Do you know of a particularly inspiring colleague? Why not suggest him or her for a scientist portrait in Science in School?! We're particularly looking for young scientists who may do something a little out of the ordinary and/or have left academia, in order to illustrate the variety of possibilities that are open after studying a science. And if you want to share your ideas or discuss them with science teachers around the world, join our online discussion forum! Event organisers / Science museums If you organise events for science teachers and their students and would like to see them featured in our events calendar, please send us brief details (date, location, title, abstract, price, language, website and contact details). We also invite you to link to Science in School from your website. If you are willing to distribute flyers about Science in School to visiting science teachers, we would be grateful. Please let us know how many copies you would like. If you are able to distribute printed copies of Science in School, we would also be very interested to hear from you. Science education project organisers Are you involved in an education project that science teachers should know about, can join, or that could serve as a model for others? We welcome articles or notices about such projects. See our author guidelines. Alternatively, you may announce your project in our events calendar.
