CURIO - A Teaching Toolkit for Fostering Scientific Curiosity is an Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership (KA2) in the Field of Education (2018-2020).

This page offers additional material about our free toolkit, our research, and also recommends a few other games that, like our own, playfully try to enrich the classroom and promote inherent motivation in learning.
