Project material
The NEXT STEP Communities’ Environment through the web as well as the Network will offer free membership for teachers, students and relevant stakeholders, including access to rich open educational resources, implementation scenarios and tool-kits (both pre-existing and developed during the project). Members will be invited to share creative materials (i.e. videos of NEXT STEP activities, presentations of their ideas, examples of scenarios etc.) created in all relevant settings (videos, online posters, essays, music syntheses’, laboratory stories, etc.) by uploading these on the web platform. The NEXT STEP web platform will act as the HUB with a pool of educational resources, training and information material and tools (in science courses, in art course, in team working in social entrepreneurship etc.). Utilizing this content, users will be able to design their own projects but also teaching activities based on the NEXT STEP framework. The evaluation of the NEXT STEP approach by the participants involved in the STEAM IDEAS’ Square, the key stakeholders and the participating institutions will have as a result to provide sustainable tools, especially for science and art courses in schools’ communities. This will also be enriched by the online web communities that are going to be created in platforms such as the The School of Future.
