Transnational Partner Meeting April 2024

The second AstronoMine transnational project meeting took place in Piraeus, near Athens, Greece, on 16-17 April 2024.

Hosted by the prestigious Private School Themistoklis S.A., the meeting was opened with a wonderful presentation by the Themistoklis students featuring a theatrical play portraying the Big Bang and the Solar System.

The partners then got down to the serious work of the project, and engaged in a productive exchange of ideas, focusing on the main deliverables of the project:
• the Teachers’ Manual
• the Minecraft: Education Edition Worlds, and
• the Astronomine Academy. These exciting results are now available on the project website.

The project now enters its final semester, with several activities planned to take place in Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. The project partners will further engage with schools, teachers and students, to roll out the implementation of AstronoMine in their respective countries.

A third, and final, transnational meeting is scheduled to be held in Portugal in October which will mark the conclusion of the AstronoMine adventure.
