And it is ON! 😍 🗣️ The OTTER project meeting just started in Budapest 🇭🇺 and we're looking forward to a busy day with many fruitful discussions and insights!

The missing 🧩 in the puzzle of an effective education? The right learning environment. Students perform much better when they are provided with the space to explore, & connect with the world around them, as #EducationOutsideTheClassroom shows us. ▶ otter-project.eu/

🚀 We are kicking off the week with incredible news! ✨ Our project joined the 2022 STEM Discovery Campaign, a collaborative initiative by @scientix_eu to promote activities, careers, workshops and studies in #STEM ! Learn more about it here: scientix.eu/events/campaigns… #SDC

Happy #InternationalDayofEducation! 🙌 Us, OTTERs, strongly believe in the power of #education. Through #EOC (Education Outside the Classroom) methods, we enable students to acknowledge their power and help shape the world of tomorrow. Follow our project to see #EOC in action!

Why is #sciencelearning so important? 👉 Because it helps our youngsters become more aware of the problems we are facing today and it provides them with the tools and knowledge they need to solve them. In the end, #scienceeducation is something that benefits us all! 🔬🧪
