The PROJECTO-S  program runs in weekly blocks (i.e. blocks of 5 sequential days each:Monday to Friday, from 8:30 am * to 4:30 pm **)  during the summer months. 

​

 

 

​

Activities are planned in such a way as to stimulate the will to investigate and learn, to reinforce team spirit., and  develop multi- and inter-disciplinary skills (for example, the need to integrate concepts from Mathematics, Physics, Biology and Biotechnology, Informatics, Geography, Ecology, Resource Management_cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_, Project planning and management, Scientific and laboratory design).
And they can also involve other areas of knowledge, such as History (namely History of Science, Drawing, Music, Poetry, Sports...).

​

 

The central theme is chosen by the group, and to be treated in an interdisciplinary way, but with a scientific focus and explored in a creative way through the project learning methodology.

 

​

WHAT IS "PROJECT LEARNING"?

​

Outlining a project (even a simple project) requires learning.

​

A PROJECT is a well-defined plan of the set of actions, materials and human capital needed to achieve a final result (objective) with meaning and value, whether for the person designing the project, for the team or for other people.

​

Having to work on a project from start to finish helps to acquire and improve, for example, the skills of:

• observation

• investigation

• organization

• reflection 

• creativity

• independence

• leadership

and simultaneously encourages team spirit and sharing, critical analysis, and the capacity for synthesis and public presentation.

​

Possibility of a study/observation/sample collection trip (depending on the theme)

​

In case of study trip, it will be the area close to Lisbon (for example: Museums in Belém, Praia de Sao João do Estoril, or Sintra), and the route will be made by public transport (bus, train as applicable)
