WG3 “Informal education” meeting description and evaluation scores;

Join us in Porto to focus  on identifying best practices in science exhibits on evolution as well as effective messages to promote scientific literacy in evolution

We will meet in Porto to discuss the following:

1. The establishment of  a work-plan outlining how to identify science exhibitions, exhibits and activities that present evolution-related topics and retrieve any available assessment data on their impact.
2. A scope of a workshop focusing on best practices/guidelines for creating/restructuring museum exhibitions, exhibits and educational programmes on evolution. This would involve choosing potential venues, speakers, case studies.
3. Initial ideas for a workshop that will explore assessment strategies to evaluate evolution exhibits (in collaboration with WG1) .
4. Plans for STSMs that will focus on effective links and activities that could reinforce learning both in- and outside of the classroom. This will involve choosing key topics that STSMs would focus on and what the outcomes would be.

Applications for this WG meeting will be evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria
