Al seguente link trovate un video di insegnanti di scienze della vita che supportano il progetto Amgen Teach
Lanciato nel 2014, Amgen Teach è un programma europeo di 2 milioni di euro, finanziato dalla Fondazione Amgen, con assistenza diretta e tecnica fornita dalla European Schoolnet di Bruxelles. Il programma è stato progettato per approfondire l’interesse e il successo degli studenti nella scienza, rafforzando la capacità degli insegnanti della scienza della vita della scuola secondaria di utilizzare strategie di insegnamento basate sull’inquiry. L’Amgen Teach è costituito da una serie di laboratori di formazione faccia a faccia, offerti in molte lingue supportando il programma nazionale. I laboratori sono progettati e proposti da formatori nominati in ciascun paese partecipante e sostenuti attraverso una serie di attività europee di apprendimento a distanza ogni anno. Ad oggi sono stati coinvolti oltre 2.100 insegnanti. Ulteriori informazioni: https://www.amgenteach.eu

Teachers share their experience with IBSE in new Amgen Teach video
Do you want to know more about how the Amgen Teach project supports life science teachers in Europe? Teachers share their experience after the fourth year of activity of the project. According to teachers, using IBSE in class helps the students feel more involved and the methodology of Amgen Teach helps them learn how to ask questions and verify hypothesis. IBSE allows students to understand even very difficult phenomena in science.
“Planning IBSE lessons takes time, but the results are absolutely fantastic,” said Miryam Winters, teacher from Ireland.
Renata Sidoruk Soloducha, teacher from Poland, said: “Amgen Teach enhanced my abuility to use IBSE and enhanced my possibilities to prepare interesting lessons and experiments for my class.”
Marta Panisi, teacher from Italy, highlighted the importance of creating teachers’ community: “If we become a community, we can actually share methods and we can exchange not only things about the matters we teach, but also the way we teach.”
