RiTE

| PO | VO | MBO |

The aim of the RiTE-project is to promote and facilitate (student) teachers to create an evidenceinformed
teaching practice in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education.
In this project, (student) teachers are stimulated to use evidence from educational and scientific
research to experiment and innovate their teaching and learning processes. With evidence-informed
teaching practices we allude to the use of current relevant research to plan lessons. This project
responds to two major challenges of our societies on a European dimension:

1. It addresses the current challenge of evidence-informed decision-making in an age where pieces of evidence are increasingly ignored by policy makers world-wide and the amount of information is increasingly complex leading to initiatives such as EU4FACTS;
2. It addresses the need that the European Commission has recently put down regarding the strengthening of initial teacher education (ITE) and continuous professional development (CPD) (EC, 2015).

Granted for a project with multiple beneficiaries under the ERASMUS+ Programme
Agreement number: 2019-1-NL01-KA203-060339 from 1-9-2019 until 31-12-2022.
