This portal provides opportunities to make science education more challenging, more playful and above all more imaginative and inspiring for today’s students.
Finalists will take part in the Inspiring Science Education International Conference taking place in Athens on 22-24 April where the overall winner will be announced. The prize for the winner of this year’s competition is kindly sponsored by Vernier, partners in the ISE project.
Our thanks to everyone who took part and especially to the competition’s hard-working team of judges whose names will be announced in the ISE website along with more details about the finalists in the coming days.
