E^4: Professional learning for science teachers on using imaginative tools for teaching about energy

Abstract Faced with current environmental and technological challenges, we believe it is necessary to support and reform teacher education at academic institutions—especially for primary and lower secondary school teachers—in matters concerning energy. Here, we present the Erasmus project e^4, where we aim at (1) creating a higher education course with innovative resources for teacher training in the field of energy technologies, (2) establishing a network of academic institutions and partners from (energy) industry, agriculture and public institutions dealing practically with these matters (from hereon called stakeholders); and lastly, (3) making these results available on a web platform. In this paper, we outline the project and its contents, and report about experimenting with one of its resources, i.e. Lego® Serious Play® storytelling.

Abstract

Abstract Faced with current environmental and technological challenges, we believe it is necessary to support and reform teacher education at academic institutions—especially for primary and lower secondary school teachers—in matters concerning energy. Here, we present the Erasmus project e^4, where we aim at (1) creating a higher education course with innovative resources for teacher training in the field of energy technologies, (2) establishing a network of academic institutions and partners from (energy) industry, agriculture and public institutions dealing practically with these matters (from hereon called stakeholders); and lastly, (3) making these results available on a web platform. In this paper, we outline the project and its contents, and report about experimenting with one of its resources, i.e. Lego® Serious Play® storytelling.
