Biology - Ecology: Meeting between secondary school teachers and FdS teacher-researchers

On October 7, the Biology-Ecology teaching department welcomed for the fourth time80 secondary school teachers (life and earth sciences in middle and high schools, biotechnologies in high schools and biology-ecology in high schools) for collaborative work with 19 teacher-researchers (Faculté des Sciences-UM) and researchers (CNRS, IRD, INRAE, CIRAD).The program, funded by MUSE via KIM-RIVE (Risques Infectieux et VEcteurs), involves each of the 19 teams of teachers working with a researcher on a scientific article of their choice, and making it available in the form of a poster and a set of activities that can be carried out directly in the classroom.The first volume, "L'évolution en action", was distributed to all secondary schools in France (12,000 copies).

These were very rewarding days, both for the teachers and for the researchers and teacher-researchers, who always enjoy meeting up with a large number of secondary school teachers who were trained at the Faculty of Science!
