Use and Impact of TIMSS

Following the TIMSS 2011 reports, which drew attention to the situation of science laboratories in primary and basic schools (Grades 5 to 8), Lithuania decided to equip all schools with scientific cabinets and set up 10 STEAM open access centers, which will be equipped with science laboratories for students in formal and nonformal education. Lithuania also plans to establish a national Science and Technology Popularization Centre.
