iYouth is missioned to carry out practical experimentation with open schooling approaches fostering innovation mind-sets and capacity in secondary schools, addressing young students aged 12 – 15 which is unanimously confirmed as precisely the years when most young students lose interest in science learning and careering thus disengaging from what could be turned into strong innovation capacity. The rationale of the iYouth project is to carry out practical experimentation with the creation of innovation interest, skills and capacity in early schooling, including developing appropriate methodologies and assessment approaches. The project is focused on innovation interest, skills and capacity, but will at the same time will contribute considerably to the creation of early entrepreneurial mentality among the participating students and teachers.
