Abstract
The objective of the present paper is to discuss the activities of the TFA (Tirocinio Formativo Attivo) course for Chemistry teachers (held at the Department of Chemistry, Biology and Biotechnology of the University of Perugia (Italy) with the support of the Department of Mathematics and Informatics during the first half of the year 2015) and analyse its outcomes. In particular, the paper focuses on the introduction of teaching practices and European standards developed by the European Chemistry Thematic Network (ECTN) in the training of TFA teachers of the Umbria Region schools.
