Designing educational material

For the correct implementation of the 50/50 methodology, it is necessary to create educational material appropriate for the age range involved in the project. This material will need to be created in accordance with the specific educational curriculum of each partner country ensuring that age group approaches topic in the most appropriate way and so that class work in schools, in general, is made easier. It should also be material that permits experimentation and should be open enough to allow opportunities for creativity among the educational community.

We intend to create an e-pack (energy and/or educational pack); in other words, a set of educational and experimental materials connected to the 50/50 scheme to distribute for all educational centres: The e-pack will contain a lot of resources that can be used within the school year. The materials will be addressed to children but also to teachers.

Teachers will be able to choose material that is best suited for the activities they wish to develop. Material will not run out over the course of the school year, but can even be used over various years.

The E-pack will take into account and include resources, materials, websites, that are already available and that help to raise awareness on energy issues.

The e-pack should achieve the following strategic environmental education objectives:

  • Promoting awareness
  • Knowledge and interdisciplinary actions
  • Educate for action and to share new values
  • Promote training and skill acquisition
  • Encourage participation
  • Evaluation of progress and results
