Final Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation plan

We will develop strategies for dissemination exploitation and communication and set up a related plan We will revise the first version of the plan and revise it throughout the project and thereby develop a final version

Manual to plan and perform SCP

The manual will provide operational steps schools need to follow when they wish to run a SCP such as decide on which teachers classes or groups are supposed to participate decide on in which framework the SCP is to take part eg in a project week at the end of the term decide on a rough topic and possible cooperation partners contact possible partners set up an activity plan for the SCP This stepbystep manual will also script critical moves

Pedagogical guidelines and exemplary science materials

PEDAGOGICAL GUIDELINES AND EXAMPLARY SCIENCE MATERIALSPedagogical guidelines for the SCP One main aspect of MOSTs success is the meaningful engagement of all involved stakeholders and community members Therefore we will introduce cocreation processes and collaborative working methods as well as provide information on pedagogical concepts we recommend applying see 131 and particularly for girls Specific Objective I2 Exemplary scientific materials on waste and energy As the project participants themselves will select challenging waste and energy issues relevant to their community there will be many different specific topic questions Thus we need to provide background information which can be used universally or be tailored to the needs of the respective SCP Interesting facts on waste managementenergy across Europe information on where to find further scientific and practical knowledge on these topics or posing societal questions on waste and energy management for both primary and secondary level as naturally problems for primary schools need to be simpler than for secondary schools

Account on the European conference

We will draft a brief advertising account to be put on the website and distributed via newsletter to disseminate the projects results

Guidelines: MOST Fairs & setting up regional partnerships

These guidelines will contain information on the aims of the fairs what preparation needs doing for the fairs advertising finding participants and exhibitors beyond the Open Science Schooling Communities what means of dissemination may be used who should be invited what the fair should offer exhibition of the SCP results stands of possible other stakeholders working on wastemanagement or energy saving workshops presentations how to organise the fairs awardsceremony including criteria for selecting the best SCP Additionally these guidelines will provide recommendations on how to use the Regional Support Team to set up a sustainable Open Schooling network in the region eg who to involve how to maintain contact how to ensure that different network members collaborate how to present the network on website

Final evaluation of the impact of the MOST project

The report will draw on the evidence collected through the two cycles of implementation It will discuss the impact of the project and provide a rich picture on how to contribute to a more interested and literate society through the development of SCPs This report will cater for exploitation of the SCPs in communities beyond the Consortium as it will also summarise the SCPs in relation to what went well and what did not and give related recommendations to policy makers and communities

European report on the solutions found in teh SCPs

EUROPEAN REPORT ON SOLUTIONS FOUND IN THE SCPAll regions will submit best solutions to environmental issues found by SCPs in their region to the WP lead They will collate the reports then write an introduction to the different regional reports
