With the first season of Class Zero Emission behind us, it is time for the International Polar Foundation to release its first assessment of the project. With 1700 pupils (1000 flemish-speaking and 700 French-speaking) having attended the workshop since its opening in March 2009, the IPF's educational team is quite satisfied with the general outcome.

Another positive point worth mentionning is the fact that the attendance was extremely diversified with pupils coming from all over the country and all types of schooling (i.e. professionnal, technical or general).

Feedback on the tools used in Class Zero Emission was positive, highlighting an appreciation for their interactivity and diversity.Over the next season, new tools will be introduced in the Classroom and teachers will have the possibility of following a training program associated to the themes developed in Class Zero Emission.

Don't waste any more time and reserve your workshop now: inscriptions for the month of September have started!
