Cultural heritage is a basic component of each country, as it includes all values from past to future. In other words is treasure through the years. Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) included in many subjects in curriculum. In the digital era the Europeana DSI-4 project (http://fcl.eun.org/europeana-dsi4 ), implemented and supported by the European School Network (www.eun.org ) offered many opportunities for the integration the use of digital cultural heritage in teaching in STEM learning environments. Presentation of how STEM teachers could use Europeana collections for educational purposes in STEM classroom. Mostly it analyses the case study of teaching and learning geometrical concepts based on objects of collections of digital cultural heritage of Europeana (https://www.europeana.eu/en/collections).

This presentation discusses the implementation of the Variant Limits serious game in mathematics classrooms in Greece and its impact on student attitudes. It finds that using the game increased student engagement and mathematical knowledge, better preparing them for university exams while developing skills like problem solving. Both male and female students enjoyed participating, and girls were found to be more active than boys. The game also helped students develop mentoring skills as they assisted each other. Overall, Variant Limits led to increased activity, improved behaviors and achievement of new skills among students learning mathematics.

Summary
The current anxiety about the importance of the STEM sector in the rapidly evolving society, as well as the need for skilled staff stemming from the so-called 'skills gap', make the role of the school crucial and decisive for the mobilization and orientation of the young people in STEM science careers. A brief overview from the international literature highlights the need for collaboration and connection between the secondary education and workplaces. In the first part of the workshop will be presented not only the innovative actions and the focus area of European Schoolnet , but also the recourses and projects of Scientix that support the educational community to prepare young people for STEM careers. In particular, will be presented very important initiatives Professional Go Back at School and Teacher Placements, which has developed by STEM Alliance to strengthen the co-operation between industry and schools. In addition, these initiatives are framed by the presentation of the results of STEM career events with the presence of professionals in the schools, as well as providing guidance to teachers, parents and business based on booklets and guides and on the digital tool (www.stemalliance.eu/pgbs_tool) to set up community partnerships for STEM counseling careers. In the second part of the workshop, appropriate structured questionnaires will be completed by the participants, with the main goal the syntax of methodological school plan strategies for the creation of STEM career guidance scenarios.
Webinar: Developing and Evaluating Skills for Creativity and Innovation Panagiota Argiri
油
An overview of the current supply and demand state for tertiary STEM graduates, in EU Member States, calls on governments and social partners to strengthen the linkages between education systems and the world of work. The purpose of this webinar is to present a review of initiatives of European co-funded projects (included in Scientix repository), with a set of guidelines and methodological tools, that aim to help to decrease the mismatch between education and labor market.
In particular, the framework and the outputs of the European project DESCI will be presented in the webinar.
The webinar analyzes the DESCI TOOLKITS and METHODOLOGIES that were developed based on the Living Lab approach, adopting participatory design methodologies, connecting school, enterprise, research and territory.
