\"\"<\/a>The TIME for NANO Project aims at engaging the general public, with a special attention to young people, on benefits and risks related to nanoscale research, engineering and technology, through specific informal education products<\/strong>, namely the nano-kit<\/strong> and the organisation of a web contest<\/strong> each year that will be the basis for the realisation of events and debates for the public and collecting opinions and feedbacks from the participants.<\/p>\n

The products will use an inquiry-based learning approach, specifically developed in science centres\/museums<\/strong>, where people understand by doing.<\/p>\n

The nano-kit could contain e.g. small exhibits, nano-objects and materials, scripts for experiments and role\/team game cards. It is a tool for stimulating the participation of youngsters in the nano-olympics<\/strong> and for engaging in debate scientists, stakeholders and the public in general.<\/p>\n

The web platform<\/em><\/a> will be a resource centre and an attractor for the whole community of N&N communicators, through its contents (continuous addition of new information etc), its innovative tools (web contest) and the artistic approach, the online feedback collection.<\/p>\n

A great added value of the project is that of \u201cgrowing\u201d a community of people engaged in N&N communication, through the realisation of training courses<\/strong> in each of the participating Science Centres (at national level) and by Ecsite (at European level) intended to reach a number of at least 450 multipliers (experts working in outreach and education efforts), carefully chosen among three main groups: explainers in science centres and PhD students in science communication; teachers from primary and high schools.<\/p>\n

The public participation to the web-contest is ensured by the organisation of many events in science centres of 9 Countries each year: launch event, nano days, final event with award prizes, intended as occasions for informing\/educating, on one hand, and for engaging youngsters, collecting perceptions and opinions, on the other.<\/p>\n

The consortium include 13 partner and is coordinated by Fondazione Idis Citt\u00e0 della Scienza<\/a> (Italy). The other partners are: Observa (Italy), Ecsite<\/a> (Belgium), BridA (Slovenia), Ci\u00eancia Viva<\/a> (Portugal), CCSTI La Casemate<\/a> (France), TSCF<\/a> (Turkey), Technopolis (Belgium), Politechnika Warszawska<\/a> (Poland), Heureka (Finland), Ecsite UK (United Kingdom), Deutsches Museum<\/a> (Germany), CUEN<\/a> (Italy).<\/p>\n

Observa’s role in the project will be to monitor the activities and preparing assessment tools<\/strong> for the collection of information concerning the process of implementation and results of initiatives.<\/p>\n
