Department of Chemistry
Spring 1994: first experience with other local schools in environmental educational topics (water quality)
![Page 5: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Spring 1997: creation of network of six local schools, in relation to lichens as bioindicators (“Bioindicatori - i Licheni”)
![Page 6: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
1998: the network expanded its activities under the umbrella-project “Ambiente e Qualità” which included two international projects related to the monitoring of environmental quality, G.R.E.E.N. and GLOBE
![Page 7: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
“MONUMENTI” PROJECTeffects of air pollution on the conservation of monuments

The “Ambiente e Qualità” project has the following macro-objectives:
• The trial of project activities on common themes involving different types of schools in a network
• The definition of structured rules to organise, test and document the work accomplished
• The development of a modularly structured educational system to be used in projects
![Page 9: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Educational Laboratory
Created to teach, up-date/train, and develop educational materials, not to waste the experience and knowledge acquired by teachers and to make it available to the network
![Page 10: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The following goals are expected:
• To build up a structure to provide services for schools and the local area
• To allow an exchange of information between students and teachers in different schools
• To promote connections and to create relationships between research, teaching and local work training centres
• To issue and circulate the work accomplished now and in the future
![Page 11: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Some services
• Co-ordination in the use of labs, libraries, data banks and other materials and tools
• Organisation of training courses on specific themes• Organisation of meetings between network teachers• Participation in conferences and exhibits on works already performed by the network• Editing of works performed by the schools
![Page 12: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
KEY POINTS FOR WORKING IN A NETWORK
• Overall goals according to “Ambiente e Qualità” project planning, but specific objectives and targets for each school,
• Synergy obtained thanks to people involved, tools and knowledge shared, feedback obtained
• Mutual support from planning the work with others (condition of financial resources, too)
![Page 13: Cooperation among schools](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56814f2a550346895dbcb670/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SOME ISSUES• Gaps in communication
• Misunderstanding of roles
• Mixing-up of co-ordination and executive roles
• People overloaded, because involved in many activities
• Nodes with different resources
• Difficulty to obtain acknowledgment of work done

the Olt river (Romania) and the Aude river (France).
These rivers are used differently
The Aude river
– for sport activities, for hydroelectricity and tourist activities.
The Olt river
- for hydroelectricity and hydrotherapy.
