Astronomy EDUcation Alliance Meeting in Estoril

Rosa Doran and her colleagues in NUCLIO organized a very well attended and engaging global astronomy education meeting from 8-12 September in Estoril, Portugal. Bringing together practitioners and policy-makers from Portugal and abroad, the meeting included a range of talks and workshops on fostering high engagement and deep learning of Maths, Science and Technology through Astronomy Education. Invited speakers came from all over the world and included ISE partner Sofoklis Sotiriou from Ellinogermaniki Agogi in Greece. Lots of really exciting initiatives were presented by both experts from astronomy outreach initiatives and teachers who are taking up opportunities afforded through recent developments in astronomy to make teaching science more engaging, innovative and relevant.
