    David Featonby “retired” from school physics teaching after 35 years in the classroom, working successfully with pupils of all abilities in a large comprehensive school in Newcastle on Tyne , England. Since retiring he has worked with the Institute of Physics UK as a Teacher Trainer in the North East of England and throughout the UK. He has represented UK at Science on Stage in Geneva 2005, Grenoble 2007, Berlin 2008, Copenhagen in 2011 and Slubice in 2013. David now works with the International Science on Stage (Europe) Committee as UK representative and member of the Executive Board. He is author of articles in the European journal Science in School and several "hands on" articles in the international journal Physics Education, including a regular column entitled “What happens Next?” He has led workshops at many conferences throughout the UK and Europe. David is particularly interested in making Physics accessible to all and showing the physics in everyday things to the public, whatever their age. Most recently he was given a special commendation from the Institute of Physics for his recent article on the Tippee Top, and has been instrumental in raising awareness of the problems children with Colour vision deficiency experience in science. David is a member of the latest Science on Sate i-stage group producing on line materials for teachers on “Science and Football”. David is a keen musician (playing violin, and Northumbrian small pipes )and recently led an international choir at Science on Stage in London. Apart from his science David spends time at home in a community orchestra, is a governor of his local school, a keen member of his village church and a grandfather!

Following the principle ‘from teachers for teachers’ the focus is on teachers as educational experts. Science on Stage is supporting their international professionalization: From primary to secondary school – motivated teachers are key to help students develop the skills they need for the societal challenges of the future. SCIENCE ON STAGE: TEACHER PROFESSIONALISM FROM TEACHERS FOR TEACHERS FOCUS ON TEACHERS REAL CHANGES START AT THE BASE challenge: Committed teachers should be supported in their personal and professional growth. The appreciation of the teaching challenge: Representatives of politics, industry and education profession itself should be strengthened in society. providers agree that professional and well-trained teachers play a key role when it comes to facing large scale societal challenges of the Science on Stage supports teachers‘ motivation by organising future. international educational festivals, international cooperation between teachers as well as cross-border teacher trainings. By Science on Stage, the European Network for STEM Teachers, experiencing these kind of personal exchanges with like-minded continues to support the in-service training, motivation and colleagues, teachers’ self esteem is strengthened and new skills are networking between teachers with good practice teaching ideas. gained. As a public platform for good practice teaching ideas it is Teachers have engaged with Science on Stage over the past 15 years especially important to us to highlight our teachers’ commitment to via non-bureaucratic and effective exchange activities.

Science on Stage Europe believes that the best way to improve science teaching and to encourage more schoolchildren to consider a career in science or engineering is to motivate and inform their teachers. The non-profit organisation was founded in 2000 and reaches 100,000 teachers Europe-wide. The countries involved are: ICELAND JOIN FINLAND US!

  • Papers Are Being Prepared and Published; Good Practice Is Being Shared, and All This from Practicing Teachers to Other Practicing Teachers
    Science on stage SCIENCE ON STAGE: THE EUROPEAN PLATFORM FOR SCIENCE TEACHERS D. Featonby Science on Stage Europe, [email protected] INTRODUCTION Science on stage is a pan European teacher network established in 2000 as Physics on Stage which grew into Science on Stage in 2005. It is a non-profit association since 2011 with administrative headquarters in Berlin. We believe that living out its motto “From teachers for teachers” makes Science on Stage unique in Europe. By inspiring science teachers we provide inspiration for our students, and therefore will make a difference in the supply of motivated scientists in the future. The ultimate goal of science on stage is to improve science teaching by encouraging creativity in science teaching, with teachers sharing ideas that have worked for them in the laboratory and classroom. Through this we shall encourage more school children to consider a career in science or engineering by spreading good teaching practice among Europe’s science teachers. Science on Stage has an expanding network of national committees (NSCs) in more than 25 european countries (1) who are responsible for selection national representatives for its festivals and promoting the good teaching ideas from these biannual festivals and consequently reaches about 100.000 teachers and teacher trainers each year. Each National Committee works independently following certain agreed guidelines common to all, is self funding from local industry, governments and educational institutions, and is supported from the Science on Stage office in Berlin. Fig.1. Teachers sharing ideas at a recent Science on Stage Festival 43 Teaching Physics Innovatively Science on Stage has organised eight European festivals from 2000-2015, the latest being in London, and the next is planned to be held in Debrecen, Hungary in 2017.

    Demonstrations and teaching ideas selected by the Irish teams PHY ICS on onS Stagetage 2 &2 3& 3 Demonstrations and teaching ideas selected by the Irish teams Foreword It is a pleasure to introduce this science teaching resource which presents demonstra- tions and teaching ideas prepared and selected by the Irish Science on Stage commit- tee and delegates that attended either the Physics on Stage 2 festival at ESA-ESTEC (Noordwijk) the Netherlands from 2-6 April 2002 or the Physics on Stage 3 festival held in ESA-ESTEC (Noordwijk) the Netherlands from 8-15 November 2003. The Physics on Stage programme was initiated in 1999 by representatives of the CERN, ESA and ESO Outreach Departments, in response to the European Commission’s Call for Proposals for the European Science and Technology Week 2000. The Physics on Stage Programme evolved into the Science on Stage programme and two international festivals have been held, Science on Stage 1 in CERN (Geneva) Switzerland on 21-25 November 2005 and Science on Stage 2 in ESRF/ILL (Grenoble) France on 2-6 April 2007. Since 2008, Science on Stage Europe (www.science-on-stage.eu) have coordinated the Interna- tional festivals, with Science on Stage 2008 held in Berlin Germany on 23-26 October 2008 and Science on Stage 2011 planned for Copenhagen, Denmark on 16-19 April 2011. The Irish participation in this project and the reprinting of this resource is made possible by the generous sponsorship of the Second Level Support Service, Junior Science Sup- port Service, Discover Science and Engineering, Institute of Physics in Ireland, Centre for the Advancement of Science and Mathematics Teaching and Learning (CASTeL) and EIROforum European Science Teachers’ Initiative (ESTI) (a partnership between CERN, ESA, ESO, EMBL, ESRF, ILL, EFDA and supported by the European Commission).
