Abstract

This short manuscript presents the activities carried out by students and teachers from ALVES MARTINS secondary school (ESAM) under the scope of the European project EduCO2cean, co-funded by ERASMUS+. These activities included lecturettes by students and teachers, talks and lectures by invited speakers, performances of the students, exhibitions, seminars and courses for teachers, participations in both a film competition and an international film festival. The activities showed to be very successful not only within the school context but also with a significant outreach for society with the opening of school to the local community. Several proposals are put aside as they are intended to be conducted over the next year. These include exhibitions, science talks at school or in the city, interviews with scientists and participation in the project’s competitions (short film and infographics) following the same strategic plan.
