GEOSCIENCES INFORMATION FOR TEACHERS (GIFT) – AN INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL WORKSHOP DURING THE EUROPEAN GEOSCIENCES UNION (EGU) GENERAL ASSEMBLY. Authors: FRIEDRICH BARNIKEL, CARLO LAJ. |

Abstract: The number of university students in geoscientific subjects has been in decline for several years now in many parts of the world, whereas disciplines like economics, medicine and law claim a steady increase. In order to ensure an adequate number of geoscientists in the future, several steps need to be taken. One of them is the strengthening of school teachers in their subjects (especially high school teachers, but also those at primary or intermediary level dealing with environmental topics in a broad sense). If school teachers are supported by lecturers at universities, scientific unions and other partners, such as sponsors, city councils, museums etc. their teaching may improve inasmuch as they get informed about the latest developments in science. Teachers then can contribute to discussions about current issues (like global change, recent earthquakes etc.), because they have more knowledge about the issue or have personal contacts with university lecturers in that field. They are then more likely to interest their students in science and thus contribute to a larger number of upcoming students and scientists at universities. Key words: geography, geology, physics, teacher, workshop. |
