PRIMAS materials – IBL teaching and professional development materials

The project PRIMAS regroups 14 teams from 12 different countries. It aims to effect a change across Europe in the teaching and learning of mathematics and science with teachers supported to develop inquiry-based learning (IBL) pedagogies so that students gain experience of IBL approaches. Ultimately, our objective is a greater number of students with more positive dispositions towards further study of these subjects and the desire to be employed in related fields. Work package 3 (WP3) of the project is carried out in a close cooperation between Prof. Malcolm Swan, University of Nottingham and Dr. Michiel
Doorman of Utrecht University.
The main aim of WP3 ‘Materials’ is to assemble a rich collection of teaching materials and resources for professional development which encourage and support teachers to implement inquiry-based learning (with attention for interdisciplinary teaching) in science and mathematics at secondary and primary level.
