The objectives that we pretend to develop with GREEN&STEM are:

• Creation of outdoor possibilities, for example, trails, for schools and their pupils to engage in collaborative activities for practicing STEM knowledge by using digital tools but outside of traditional school settings.
• Bridging the gap between theory and practice by introducing educational experiences and interdisciplinary approaches to solving real-life challenges. Tasking pupils with real-life challenges will help them understand the relevance of STEM knowledge in daily activities.
• Flexible and inclusive e-toolkit. E-toolkit will offer teachers and students a description of various possibilities for practicing STEM in nature. It will consist of e-materials and a freely accessible mobile app that will help in discovering activities and outdoor STEM trails for different pupils’ ages and interests.
• Increase the motivation of girls and underprivileged children to engage in STEM activities.
