motivation helping teacher led scientific professional teachers life stakeholder profiles networking reflective efficacy stakeholders context education achievement views materials school problem science inquiry innovative socio creative ibse student teaching self inspired training students solving learning

Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

'The PROFILES project promotes IBSE through raising the self-efficacy of science teachers and in so doing aiding a better understanding of the changing purpose of teaching science in schools and the value of stakeholder networking. The proposal innovation is in utilizing science teaching materials to support teachers, through an inspired, longitudinal training programme reflecting stakeholder views and needs, while simultaneously promoting a reflective IBSE school-based, training related, intervention to promote learning through creative, scientific problem solving and/or socio-scientific decision making procedures. The measures of success are through a) determining the self efficacy of science teachers in teaching innovative science education approaches allowing student acquisition of life skill competencies and b) in the attitudes of students toward this more context-led, student centered, IBSE-emphasised learning. Dissemination of approaches, reactions, and reflections form a further key project target.

Initially PROFILES involves the development of science teachers on four fronts (teacher as learner, as teacher, as reflective practitioner and as leader) consolidating their ownership of the context-led approach and incorporating use-inspired research, evaluative methods and stakeholder networking. The project enhances its dissemination approaches with lead teachers spearheading training of further teachers at pre- and in-service levels and initiating workshops for key stakeholders nationwide. The project focuses on the secondary level so that ‘open inquiry approaches’ are a major teaching target. PROFILE pays much attention to student motivation for the learning of science both in terms of intrinsic motivation (relevance, meaningful, as considered by the students) and extrinsic motivation (teacher encouragement and reinforcement) and attempts to make school science teaching more meaningful by paying attention to cultural differences, esp. at the gender level'

Introduzione (Teaser)

Finding ways to teach science in a more innovative and engaging fashion allows students to develop an interest in science careers later on. This can help boost Europe's knowledge economy.

Descrizione progetto (Article)

The EU-funded project 'Professional reflection-oriented focus on inquiry-based learning and education through science' (http://www.profiles-project.eu/ (PROFILES)) is helping to achieve this ambitious goal. Espousing a socio-scientific strategy that emphasises student motivation, the project exploits inquiry-based science education (IBSE) by empowering teachers to adopt better teaching methods that appeal to students.

To achieve its aims, the project brings together 20 partners from almost as many European countries to develop teacher partnerships, long-term training modules and IBSE teaching materials. It offers teachers new resources to develop more creative learning and problem-solving approaches.

One important project achievement is the successful organisation of the 1st International PROFILES Conference on Stakeholders' Views, which took place in Berlin, Germany in 2012. Throughout its mandate, the project team has networked with different stakeholders and integrated their recommendations to help render science education more meaningful for students. The interaction has helped bridge the gap between science education and practice to further IBSE.

Another important achievement is the development of innovative teaching training materials in collaboration with several hundred teachers. This was followed by a model for continuous professional development for teachers, helping them as well to develop self-efficacy and improve science teaching. Mechanisms to assess the effectiveness and impact of the project, its tools and resources have also been developed.

The project is helping to raise student motivation to learn science. Furthermore, it has brought about novel student-centred cognitive learning based on science that is relevant to everyday life and societal values. Its application is making science learning more interesting and useful than ever before.
