LOESS - Literacy boost through an Operational Educational Ecosystem of Societal actors on Soil health

LOESS将与实践社区（CoPs）中的多个参与者进行映射，连接和参与，以概述不同教育水平中与土壤相关的知识的当前水平，并制定教学计划和材料，包括土壤教育地图集。LOESS将探讨学生（小学和中学），学生（高等教育）和年轻专业人员以及整个欧盟和地平线欧洲联系国的社会的教育需求。LOESS将调查为什么现有材料没有在更大程度上使用，并共同创建土壤教育课程和模块，包括虚拟现实/增强现实应用。这些资源将针对教育的不同阶段，并与气候变化和生物多样性丧失的全球和地方挑战以及可持续发展目标相联系。LOESS将共同创造和测试教学技术，以鼓励教育者和学习者之间以及不同知识体系（科学，政治，个人，地方和集体文化知识）之间的有效知识流动和对话。它将在15个国家开展活动，并通过社区可持续发展研究和学习提供与土壤教育有关的实践活动。为了克服认识差距，LOESS将组织有针对性的活动和活动，以交流知识，促进对结果的讨论，并鼓励更高的吸收。LOESS还将与负责初等、中等和高等教育的公共当局和机构合作，并提供有针对性的建议和资源，以提高知识水平。LOESS的教育和传播活动将伴随能力建设、知识交流和同行学习。

LOESS will map, connect and engage with multiple actors in Communities of Practice (CoPs) to provide an overview of the current level of soil related knowledge in different educational levels and develop teaching programmes and materials including an Atlas of Soil Education. LOESS will explore educational needs amongst school pupils (primary and secondary levels), students (tertiary level) and young professionals, and society across the European Union and Horizon Europe Associated Countries. LOESS will investigate why existing material is not used to a greater extent and co-create courses and modules for soil education, including virtual reality/augmented reality applications. These resources will target the different stages of education and connect to global and local challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss and the Sustainable Development Goals. LOESS will co-create and test pedagogical techniques to encourage effective knowledge flows and discourse between educators and learners and between different knowledge systems (scientific, political, individual local and collective cultural knowledge). It will carry out activities in 15 countries and provide hands-on activities related to soil education through Community Engaged Research and Learning. To overcome the awareness gap, LOESS will organise focused campaigns and events to exchange knowledge, promote discussion on the results and encourage higher uptake. LOESS will also engage with public authorities and institutions responsible for primary, secondary and tertiary education and provide targeted recommendations and resources for improved knowledge enhancement. Capacity building, knowledge exchange and peer-to-peer learning will accompany LOESS' education and dissemination activities.
