| 2016/03/05 - 2016/03/12 | Erasmus+ "Matters of Matter - Future Materials in Science Education", funded by the European Union, was developed between
schools from Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Germany. The project focused on innovative materials that are being developed to
enhance science education such as thermochromic paints. Simone C. Fernandes participated as a spokesperson from Portugal for
two years and in the 4th Meeting in Germany, where they visited the University of Bremen and worked on projects regarding
biosensors, "smart houses", or energy harvesting.
