ICSE (International Centre for STEM Education) is an internationally connected research centre that is located at the University of Education in Freiburg, Germany. The ultimate aim of ICSE is to improve STEM education across Europe through practice-related research and its transfer into practice.
The teach4life platform emerges from the international project 3C4life. 3C4life (2021-2024) stands for “Perspectives for Lifelong STEM Teaching – Career Guidance, Collaborative Practice and Competence Development”. The project is an EU-funded three years programme (2021- 2024), which aims to raise the attractiveness of teacher profession and to systemically improve STEM education at European and national level.
3C4life gathers twelve partners from six European countries. In each country an educational authority is teaming up with a research partner to operate in close connection with systemic levels of education in each country.
