Thank you very, very much indeed!
Here is the second part, concerning the scientific and linguistic objectives.
The question is: " What are the concrete objectives of the partnership"?
1)Scientific objectives
- describing the biodiversity, the presence of macroinvertebrates as a marker for water quality in waterways in each school's local area by carrying out microbiological, physical and ch- identifying possible influences on the biodiversity caused by human activity and as a result of this
sensibilising the pupils for the interaction of differents ecosystems
- understanding what kind of protection and sustainablilty measures are already taken
- listing common pollutants and sources of polluted sewage
- documenting the results of the research by creating a common data base and pedagogical material.
- explaining the results during environmental days in the respective natural parks
emical analysis of the water

"To make students practically understand some fundamental techniques of chemical and microbiological analyses, of observation and of geological interpretation" ( I need to integrate this into the scientific objectives)
The question is: " What are the concrete objectives of the partnership"?
In this context, the word "concrete" means specific and detailed. I would also take it to mean the specific results of the students' work and study: what ideas lead to what actions/experiments ... and what conclusions do all these things lead to?
Scientific objectives
- developing pupils' practical understanding of some fundamental techniques of chemical and microbiological analyses, of observation, and of geological interpretation
- describing the biodiversity of the water in the specific area or park
- identifying the presence of macro-invertebrates as a marker for water quality in waterways in each school's local area by carrying out micro-biological, physical, and chemical analysis of the water
- identifying possible influences on the biodiversity caused by human activity and as a result of this
sensitising the pupils to the interaction of different ecosystems
- understanding what kind of protection and sustainablilty measures are already in place
- listing common pollutants and their sources
- documenting the results of the research by creating a common database and pedagogical material
- explaining the results during environmental days in the respective natural parks
You may want to put the objectives in a different order, but they are all in the same (parallel) format now.
The scientific objectives of the partnership are to:
1) Describe the biodiversity and assess water quality in waterways in each school's local area through microbiological, physical, and chemical analysis of the water. This involves studying the different species of macroinvertebrates present in the water as indicators of water quality.
2) Investigate possible influences on biodiversity caused by human activities and identify ways to mitigate these impacts. This aims to raise awareness among students about the interaction between different ecosystems and the importance of preserving biodiversity.
3) Understand the existing protection and sustainability measures already in place for the waterways and assess their effectiveness. This involves analyzing the measures taken to protect and maintain the quality of the water, and identifying any gaps or areas for improvement.
4) Compile a list of common pollutants and identify their sources in order to better understand the factors contributing to water pollution. This can help in developing strategies to reduce pollution and protect the waterways.
5) Document the findings of the research by creating a common database and developing pedagogical materials. This involves organizing and analyzing the collected data, and creating educational resources to share the results with other students and the wider community.
6) Present and explain the research results during environmental days held in the respective natural parks. This provides an opportunity for students to showcase their findings and engage with the local community to raise awareness about water quality issues and the importance of protecting ecosystems.
Additionally, the head science teacher aims to use this partnership to provide students with practical understanding of fundamental techniques in chemical and microbiological analysis, observation, and geological interpretation. This can be integrated into the scientific objectives by incorporating hands-on activities and fieldwork that require students to apply these techniques during the research process.
