The first teacher Online Discussion Event took place in the period 11-13 July 2012 and was moderated by Carlos Cunha. During the three day event teachers were invited to discuss how they are informed about European and national science education project results.

Bellow you find a summary of the discussed themes each day of the event.

Day 1
The first day focussed on the various dissemination channels teachers can access to get results from Science & Math Education projects. 

Most teachers said they prefer Twitter, since "You can receive information as an audience (if you want) or, on the other hand you can just send information" and because " you can choose the kind of information you want to receive. It is very easy and comfortable to use." The participants were also invited to discuss traditional media channels, but the participation was less active.

Day 2
On the second day, participants discussed what could create better dissemination of results to teachers. Some teachers mentioned the necessity for project managers to find new ways to reach teachers. It was suggested that teachers attending project workshops and conferences should have the responsability to participate in meetings with local teachers to disseminate information learned from the conferences and workshops. Some participants expressed the need of having workshops and conferences in their mother tongue.

Day 3
The third day aimed to determine the key information that should be communicated to catch teachers’ attention.
Communication and dissemination of new and inspiring methodologies and resources were seen as more interesting and effective for teachers if they are presented by peers. New methodologies should be part of the national curricula of all European countries and competitions among teachers and schools shoudl be encouraged to foster the application of new methodologies, especially if the prize is teaching equipment for the schools.
