The Pilots project is developing original tools and pedagogical material for the explainers training, focusing in particular on adult learners and science and society issues.

Pilots is also gathering all information and references to publications, projects, and activities all around the world on facilitation and explainers training.

Here you can find a selection of these materials. The archive will be updated regularly during the project.

How to organize a Pilots event

Pilots will be running training courses for European explainers (see Activities). All participants in Pilots training courses must organise a training activity in their own institution, for their colleagues. This allows explainers to share their experiences from Pilots in their own language, and ensure that as many explainers as possible benefit from this best practice, in each participating institution. Here you can find the guidelines for the events organization and a tempalte for a questionnaire of evaluation.

International multilingual bibliography

The Pilots partners are working on an international multilingual commented bibliography on explainers’ role, status and training. This is only the very first collection of titles, gathered also thanks to James Robert Bell, Karen Bultitude, Sebastiaan de Vet, Justin Dillon, Penny Fidler, Preeti Gupta, Dayna Leiton, Luz Lindegaard and Maritza MacDonald, Anne Richardson, who kindly sent us their suggestions. We would welcome proposals of additions to the bibliography. Please contact paola@medialab.sissa.it if you would like to contribute.
