MTFLabs were one of the partners in this Erasmus+ pilot study:
the objective of the Mind over matter project is to develop hands-on, inquiry-based approaches to education that will demystify science and scientific processes in order to increase young people’s confidence in approaching STEM education and careers, by developing and testing the methodology for STEM using STEAM approach and implementing promotional campaign showing off different STEM and STEAM careers.

Our part of this project was in developing the methodology, based a lot around some of the teaching methods I have been using in my classroom at Beechwood Park.
| The project is now complete and we are thrilled to announce that we have been evaluated at 100/100, making this one of the top Erasmus projects ever and recommended as best practice at the EU level! | |
| According to Erasmus+ evaluators: | |
“The project is innovative and relevant for the organisations involved and those who work with young people, but also for the youth field itself, since its implementation raised the quality of work with young people and set standards for a systematic and research-based approach to working with young people. Participating organisations strengthened their capacities and, as an added value that surpasses the initially planned, also their capacities in the field of research-based work with young people.” | |
| “The results achieved, as well as the methodology used, are of high quality and tangible and are characterised by elements of innovation, high impact and transferability to other areas. The intellectual results go beyond the results that the participating organisations achieve as part of their regular activities, especially as regards achieving impact at the EU level.” | |
