Description

Surveys show that Austrian youth display low trust in science, and Eurobarometer data highlight similar challenges in Poland, with widespread misconceptions about evolution, climate change, and technology. This workshop introduces teachers to student perspectives on science and scientists and presents secondary-level classroom examples that address skepticism and foster critical engagement with scientific knowledge.
