[DMANET] Survey: Divulging Operations Research before University

Divulging Operations Research before University


Link: https://forms.gle/4hkeJ4Exx38GVckD6
This survey is addressed to professors, researchers, PhD candidates and all academic personnel from any university in Europe and worldwide.
The main goal is collecting data about teaching Operations Research and related didactic activities done by academics in lower schools (i.e., in primary and secondary schools, high schools and other institutes before University), to divulge them Operations Research.
We would like to discover projects of this kind, which arguments are studied, through which instruments, and the reason why.
We are interested in your personal experience and opinion in order to build, develop and potentially activate a structured educational project composed, for example, of lessons, lab sessions and group projects. We believe that the activation of this kind of educational paths, together with some guide lines to follow, could improve the knowledge of Operations Research among students and teachers in high schools. Therefore, we would like to learn what worked and what did not, which aspects have to be considered, to treasure past and present activities. Furthermore, we would like to gather contacts to exchange ideas and suggestions.

Thank you for taking the time to fill this form and help us in our project.
