Including different voices from different places in scientific knowledge production encourages participation and co-creation. It also fosters critical thinking and prepares people for the world of work.

Everyone benefits from the SENSE. educational approach to STEAM. SENSE. advocates breaking down disciplinary silos and to allow empathy and multi-modality to play an explicit role in research and education in STEM subjects.
For educators, SENSE is a rich and innovative pool of transformative teaching methods, providing the necessary theoretical foundations. Students benefit from a hands-on, interdisciplinary approach that equips them with the essential skills they need for the future.
Parents and families benefit from SENSE's enrichment activities, which foster family bonds and inter-generational connections.

Added value through citizen science
Added value for stakeholders
Sense. is designed to enhance the learning process, ensuring that all individuals have access to STEAM education. We prioritise intergenerational engagement and activities that can be readily adapted to any setting, regardless of available resources.
Added value through museum education
We believe in transdisciplinary education, open schooling and informal education. Arts Museums are specifically valuable for STEAM Education. The distinction between the arts and sciences reflects how we used to think about disciplines and education. Education in Museums and Science Centres has just begun to help us change this paradigm.
