As part of this project by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), teachers develop teaching materials for Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics and Geography as well as for Social Studies in elementary schools in cooperation with research and teacher training institutes. By distributing digital teaching material, the project “Explore Science!” contributes to Education for Sustainable Development.
The web dossier "Education for Sustainable Development" provides a wide variety of teaching material and additional information. The dossier provides definitions of certain terms in its introduction. Articles on teaching methods deal with ideas, subjects and methods of ESD. Of central importance are participatory skills, i.e. the ability to take part actively and responsibly in making decisions for the future. This term is explained in the dossier and illustrated by means of teaching material which is close to actual practice. Access to teaching material is also arranged according to school level and subject.
Further activities include workshops for teachers on Education for Sustainable Development where experienced speakers provide recommendations for the implementation of ESD.
