In Greece, five highly qualified and experienced teachers (one primary teacher, two physics teachers and two chemistry teachers) participated as active members in a ''Community of Learners'' (CoL). Two science education researchers, two nanoscience researchers and three science museum experts supported the CoL. Since the members of the CoL are located in different parts of Greece, teleconferences and face to face workshops were used in order to facilitate the collaboration and exchange of ideas and materials.
