Human and Nature. ICT-based integrated course of natural sciences for classes 5, 6

Human and Nature is an integrated course in natural sciences for 12-14 year-old Lithuanian pupils. Based on thorough pedagogical research and results of pilot projects, natural science meets modern IT in a comprehensive online environment. Virtual learning and teaching content is packaged in form of over 1700 learning objects, which are presented via site-demonstrations, laboratories, and quizzes. An online encyclopaedia and thesaurus complement the course content. Coordinated by SPC, a department of the Lithuanian Ministry of education, the project has been integrated into the curriculum of schools throughout the country. Educational experts collaborated to produce methodological recommendations for improvements to the natural sciences curriculum, alongside developing a comprehensive user manual. Due to the projects success, similar Lithuanian science courses are now developed for 15-16 year-olds. http://mkp.emokykla.lt/gamta5-6/
