The environmental radioactivity (ENVIRAD) project involves students of Italian secondary schools with the aim to make them acquainted with the radon measurement techniques. The first step of the project has consisted of the introduction of the participants into some themes not treated in usual curricula to supply the student with the cultural skill to carry out survey about radon concentrations in the school and eventually in other buildings. The second ENVIRAD's part is the creation of a network for the continuous on-line measurements of radon exhalation from soil for geophysical applications. The feasibility of the project has been verified by I-year work with a pilot school during the season 2002/2003. In the following year, 18 schools will join the project.

Abstract
The environmental radioactivity (ENVIRAD) project involves students of Italian secondary schools with the aim to make them acquainted with the radon measurement techniques. The first step of the project has consisted of the introduction of the participants into some themes not treated in usual curricula to supply the student with the cultural skill to carry out survey about radon concentrations in the school and eventually in other buildings. The second ENVIRAD's part is the creation of a network for the continuous on-line measurements of radon exhalation from soil for geophysical applications. The feasibility of the project has been verified by I-year work with a pilot school during the season 2002/2003. In the following year, 18 schools will join the project.
