education (and learning)


Explanation:
I suppose "education" is sufficient as a stand-alone term. You might add "learning", though.

Cf. http://www.vam.ac.uk/school_stdnts/index.html and http://www.britishmuseum.org/learning.aspx

In my opinion, "education" already implies the "Vermittlung" notion (teaching, courses, educational events etc.).

Education and Public Outreach


Explanation:
Science outreach, also called Education and Public Outreach (EPO or E/PO) or simply Public outreach, is an umbrella term for a variety of activities by research institutes, universities, but also institutions such as science museums, aimed at promoting public awareness (and understanding) of science and making informal contributions to science education.

SOFIA Education and Public Outreach is geared for people involved in science education such as teachers, museum or planetarium workers, youth or community organization workers and volunteers, scientists doing outreach education, or journalists writing about science education.
