Generation Next

Generation Next is a national programme that promotes digital and STEM education through open-access resources, training and project-based activities. It provides structured learning pathways that support students in developing problem-solving, coding and technological skills. The programme is relevant for ECOTEACH because it facilitates the integration of STEM competences with real-world challenges, including environmental issues. Teachers can use the platform to design interdisciplinary activities that connect science, mathematics and digital tools. Generation Next is particularly valuable for disadvantaged schools, as it offers free access to educational content and supports inclusive participation regardless of available infrastructure. The platform encourages active learning, collaboration and creativity, helping students engage with complex concepts through hands-on activities. As a project, it contributes to the development of digital competences that complement environment-based learning approaches.
