6 December 2016

The latest issue of the free magazine Science in School is now available online and in printed form. This European journal for science teachers offers inspiring articles and hands-on activities for students in every issue. It aims to promote science teaching by encouraging communication between teachers, scientists and everyone else involved in European science education.

Some of the highlights of this issue include: Blended senses: understanding synaesthesia; Under pressure: the role of Earth’s mantle in our climate; an interview with Andy Brunning, the mastermind behind Compound Interest; and a report on the European CanSat Competition 2016.

Practical teaching activities for the classroom include: a primary school activity where pupils can “Be a magnet for the day”; Wind and rain: meteorology in the classroom for physics students; and Chembot: chemistry with robots.

Science in School is published by EIROforum, a collaboration between eight European intergovernmental scientific research organisations, of which ESO is a member. The journal addresses science teaching both across Europe and across disciplines: highlighting the best in teaching and cutting-edge research.

Numerous articles, as well as their translated versions in many European languages, can be found online. If you would like to volunteer to translate Science in School articles into your own language for publication online, please see the guidelines on the Science in School website.
