This report describes two sets of guidelines: one addressed to teachers, meant to set the groundwork for introducing scientific processes in the classroom, and one addressed to researchers, including recommendations on how to address students in schools.
The guidelines are drawn from lessons learnt following implementation of 9 Citizen Science piloting initiatives in the project countries (Belgium, Greece, Poland, Spain). The aim is to address one of the key challenges of introducing Citizen Science in schools as identified by research in this area, among others: setting the framework for the creation of dialogue between learning communities and research experts. The innovation of this report lies in the development of norms and structures for the exchange between schools and researchers in a collaborative manner.
