Atividade 2 - Design and preparation of the case studies Team members Maria Jo o Silva Ana Caseiro Ant nio Almeida Bianor Valente Carlos Luz Nuno Melo Margarida Rodrigues Clarisse Nunes Vitor Manteigas Cristina Azevedo Gomes Anabela Novais Maria Isabel Abrantes Alexandra Souza Cl udia Chaves Ana Rita Alves
Atividade 2 - Design and preparation of the case studies Methods - Development of a preliminary assessment of the environmental health in each school; - Definition of the two participant classes in each school (one is a control class), and the participant students of the teachers training schools of IPL and IPV; - Creation of a work plan for each school, based on the assessment, and on the relations of the school environment systems (urban, maritime and rural); - To prepare a toolkit for each school, integrating the collaborative platform user guide, the eco-sensors and tablets, the templates of collaborative documents to support the school environmental health actions, the children pre and posttests, and other tools to collect evidence recordings; - Preparation of two participatory Workshop (one in Lisboa and another in Viseu) to work with the participant students of the teachers training schools of IPL and IPV, and the participant school teachers on research objectives, school toolkit, and activities to be implemented with children. Results - A preliminary assessment of the environmental health in each school; - A work plan for each school, including one or more thematic challenges and the topics to be explored in each case; - A toolkit for each school; - One research team meeting; - Two participatory Workshops (in Lisboa and Viseu) to participant students of the teachers training schools of IPL and IPV, and to the participant school teachers.
Atividade 3 - Development of the collaborative platform Methods - Definition of the requirements and cases of use of the collaborative platform; - Implementation of a rapid prototype; - Implementation of the collaborative platform; - Implementation of the collaborative platform user guide. Results - A collaborative platform to support school communities of practice, and specifically children, in using sensors data in environmental health decision making processes, which will include: i) A web portal that will present news, a newsletter, a workspace for each school (with collaborative docs and blog), and that will allow quantitative queries of the sensors data and map searches of the children s posts; ii) A database that will manage the children s posts, which could integrate location and time data, text, sounds, images and videos together with the sensors data, and communicated through mobile devices, such as mobile phones and tablets. - One research team meeting.

Atividade 4 - Implementation of the case studies Team members Ana Caseiro Ant nio Almeida Bianor Valente Carlos Luz Nuno Melo Margarida Rodrigues Clarisse Nunes Vitor Manteigas Anabela Novais Maria Isabel Abrantes Nuno Almeida Grant Holder 1
Atividade 4 - Implementation of the case studies Methods - In each of the three schools, the school teams (participant school children and teachers), will work as communities of practice, with the support of the project elements, and will use of the work plan, the toolkit and the collaborative platform, developed in activity 2 and 3, to implement the three case studies; - Besides the children s posts and the collaborative documents that will be recorded by the collaborative platform, selected tasks of the school communities of practice will be audio recorded and organized in multimodal narratives. A pre and posttest will be applied in all the participant classes, including the control ones. These data will be used in activity 5 (Assessment of the use of the collaborative platform and of children learning outcomes). Results - Data produced by children, using the eco-sensors and the mobile devices; - Collaborative documents produced by the school communities of practice; - Two research team meetings; - Results of the pre and posttests applied to all the children, including the ones of each control class of each school.

Atividade 5 - Assessment of the use of the collaborative platform and of children learning outcomes Methods - The assessment of the adequacy of the collaborative platform to project central goal is developed through the assessment of children s environmental health actions and learning outcomes; - An assessment of the environmental health in each school after the case studies; - A qualitative analysis of the data collected in activity 4 (Implementation of the case studies) - such as children s posts, collaborative documents, results of the pre and posttests, and audio recordings of children s tasks - will be performed to identify children s epistemic practices, such as seek out, understand, evaluate, and use environmental health information to make informed choices, reduce health risks, improve quality of life and protect the environment; - A quantitative analysis will be performed to the results of the pre and posttests applied in all the participant classes, including the control ones; - The design of the first draft of a dissemination toolkit to be used in the future by other schools, based on the toolkit developed in activity 2, and that will evolve to a dissemination toolkit in the activity 6. Results - Data produced by children, using the eco-sensors and the mobile devices; - Collaborative documents produced by the school communities of practice; - Two research team meetings; - Results of the pre and posttests applied to all the children, including the ones of each control class of each school.
Atividade 6 - Dissemination of the project's results Results - The project platform/portal which will integrate information about the project - objectives; activities; results of the school activities; and publications; - 1 book, 3 papers in international journals and 1 paper in a national journal; - 3 communications and publications in international conferences; - 2 workshops in national conferences; - 1 workshop in an international conference; - 6 MSc dissertations; - 2 participatory workshops to prepare school interventions (in collaboration with activity 2); - 2 b-learning courses will be designed and implemented to disseminate the project s results in Lisboa and Center region; - 1 final workshop with teachers in Pavilh o do Conhecimento, CV Ag ncia Nacional para a Cultura Cient fica e Tecnol gica (CV); - 1 final International Workshop to disseminate and receive experts? feedback on the project s results; - 1 dissemination toolkit.
