The Red Flora Data Book of Cyprus

Greek

Cyprus

The Red Flora Data Book of Cyprus is an important product of research activity and it was funded by the Research Promotion Foundation within the framework of the Research Project KIPRINIA 93/5th EE-2002 having as grant holder the Cyprus Forestry Association. The red data books and the red data lists are used internationally, containing all the endangered plants and animals by classifying them into categories of risk of extinction, based on quantitative criteria and defined methodology. The most widely used criteria and categories are those created from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (International Union for the Conservation of Nature-IUCN). The red data books are a necessary and important tool for the elaboration of valid and credible action plans for the conservation of the species and the biodiversity.

Evaluating the impact of the Earthkeepers Earth education program on children’s ecological understandings, values and attitudes, and behaviour in Cyprus

English

Cyprus

Abstract The recent educational reform in Cyprus moved education about sustainability to the forefront of environmental learning. The present study examines the impact of an earth education program, Earthkeepers, on children’s ecological understandings, environmental values and attitudes, and behaviour. The program was implemented during two consecutive years with 491 4th to 7th graders from nine different schools in Cyprus. Quantitative data were collected using individual concept, attitude and behaviour questionnaires, and a satisfaction survey. Qualitative data were collected using individual semi-structured interviews with twelve students and nine teachers from six different schools. Data analysis showed gains in students’ understanding as well as significant changes towards more proenvironmental values, attitudes and behaviour. Interviews confirmed the quantitative results and verified students’ behaviour.

Urban Science – Integrated Learning for Smart Cities

Italian

Italy

Yes

Over two-thirds of the European population live in cities. Enabling those cities to deliver services sustainably while keeping their citizens safe, healthy, prosperous and well-informed is amongst the most important challenges in this century. The Urban Science European project is an education response to this, to improve the teaching of scientific inquiry and investigation so that students develop the competences to actively contribute to creating healthy cities. Urban Science works through outdoor inquiry-based learning where urban areas become living-laboratories that help students explore how science can create healthier and sustainable places to live. It is solutions based; placing a strong emphasis on creativity and problem solving to ensure scientific understanding can be applied in a meaningful context.

Hydrological Heritage through Digital Maps

Spanish

Spain

The development of the computing on the cloud has helped the incorporation of the Technologies of Geographical Information ( TIG, in Spanish) to secondary education, as it wassho wn with the proyect before presented by the three partners of this proyect (“ Use of a GISWEB to the design of trails through European protected nature areas”). This time we intend to focus not only on the technology but also, mainly, on the methodology to be applied in the development of the proyect. Therefore, we are going to try to apply the Geographical Systems of information on the cloud ( GISWEB) to tell stories. 2018 has been declared as the European Year of our Cultural Heritage. The stories that we are going to tell will be related toou r heritage, especially that which deals with water ( bridges, dams, health resorts, mills, etc)

Water Quality : How can the purity of swimming water be tested?

English

Netherlands

The quality of swimming water is checked annually according to guidelines that are the same for all EU countries. What are these guidelines? How are they determined and applied? Does the water near your school meet the criteria? These are the questions that will be dealt with in this unit. Students will investigate how water quality can be determined. Biology, chemistry and mathematics all play a role in this activity. Based on the testing of water samples, students will provide some advice for the local tourist office.
