Science in School

‘Science in School’ is a European journal to promote inspiring science teaching. It covers not only biology, physics and chemistry, but also maths and earth sciences, highlighting the best in teaching and cutting-edge research, and focusing on interdisciplinary work. It is available FREE!

The contents include teaching materials, recent discoveries in science, education projects, interviews with young scientists and inspiring teachers, book reviews, and European events for teachers and schools.

‘Science in School’ is freely available. Online articles are published in many European languages and an English-language print version is distributed across Europe. Originally supported by the European Commission, the journal is published and funded by EIROforum, a collaboration of Europe’s seven largest intergovernmental research organisations.

European school teachers are invited to help by:
·     Submitting articles for publication
·     Joining the referee panel and helping to decide which articles to publish
·     Reviewing books and other resources for teachers
·     Translating articles into their own language.
