Description

The SABIR project is a co-design initiative fostering the network of the International Astronomical Union’s astronomy educators in the Mediterranean. It was held both online (February-July 2024) and in person during a one-week residency in Milano, Italy. We discussed together and shared the Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) approach, then each of the participating educators selected a laboratory activity to be rethought as an IBL one. The project included three cycles of online presentations and discussions, followed by offline implementations. The final versions of the activities were co-designed together during the residency. The future implementation of this approach is now underway.
