DESCRIPTION:
FEnanoMENOS is a competition for secondary school students in which they must carry out projects based on the study of a phenomenon related to nanoscience from start to finish. Two categories are established depending on the educational field of the participants: Compulsory Secondary Education and Special Education. Participation will take place in groups with a maximum of 6 participants, who, led by a teacher, will have to select a property offered by nanoscience and present in some everyday element of our society, to explain it in an interactive way through a sketch, experience or model.
The 15 projects that qualify for the final phase will be presented at the Aragon Nanoscience Fair for schoolchildren.
DESCRIPTION: 10alamenos9 present the history and scope of nanotechnology through workshops, round tables, coffee-talks, seminars, master classes, science and art performances and many other activities.
The festival aims to bring us, regardless of age and knowledge, in a fun and exciting way, closer to the nano dimension, i.e. to the billionth (10-9) part of a metre, the dimension slightly larger than atoms and molecules, the dimension of our DNA. The festival will include a series of activities that will take place on successive days in various parts of Spain.
DESCRIPTION: NanoAwareness is an informative audiovisual content project designed by the Cátedra SAMCA de Nanotecnología at the University of Zaragoza to demonstrate how research in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology is present in many of the everyday objects that surround us.
The project is presented from an innovative approach: each episode starts with the encounter and analysis of a consumer product that we find in our daily life with some special feature and we will make a journey to the centre of the object. In this journey to its interior, we analyse what the product and its components are like on the nanometric scale and how the qualities it has are possible in part or in whole thanks to nanoscience and the manipulation of matter on this scale.
DESCRIPTION:
Hi Score Science is a free, ad-free science quiz game in Spanish and English, with versions in French and Basque, for mobile devices, Play Store and Apple Store and on PC, Mac and Linux (www.HiScoreScience.org) whose aim is to increase the scientific culture of its users in a fun way, bringing closer the science we live with every day.
Hi Score Science is not only a game of questions and answers about science, but also allows us to delve into science and its advances through two research centres, the Instituto de Nanociencia y Materiales de Aragón (INMA), y el Instituto de Síntesis Química y Catálisis Homogénea (ISQCH), -both joint centres of the CSIC and the University of Zaragoza-. For this reason, and since it is an outreach project developed between two research centres, the game includes informative explanations of the scientific reality behind each of the answers, seeking to encourage users’ curiosity about science.
We want users to feel part of the project, which is why users are encouraged to collaborate in the development of the scientific content of the game and are rewarded for it. To this end, three national competitions have been created: a junior competition for primary school students, a youth competition for secondary school, high school and vocational training students, and a senior competition for students aged 18 and over.
In addition, an Absolute National on-line league has been created with a monthly tournament from September to June in which users from all over Spain, all ages and educational levels, from primary school to university professors and from all over Spain compete.
The project also has themed gymkhanas (science in general, SDGs and women scientists), which will be used in different Spanish locations from large cities to villages with few inhabitants and which, thanks to their versatile and easily adaptable design, can be requested for use in any town or educational centre.
Finally, there is also a recreational machine, like a machine from the 80’s, which facilitates its installation for exhibitions in museums and science houses, which will circulate in several Spanish museums and which can also be requested for its use.
All the news and the rules of the different competitions are available at www.HiScoreScience.org.
DESCRIPTION: The Escuela de Conservación y Restauración de Bienes Culturales de Aragón (ESCYRA) and the Instituto de Nanociencia y Materiales de Aragón, INMA (CSIC-UNIZAR) propose a journey through time with a workshop on the restoration and conservation of the sarcophagus and a cat mummy, where you can experiment with the different cutting-edge scientific techniques used in professional conservation and restoration in a fun and entertaining way.
This activity is recommended for children from 10 to 15 years old, but it is also suitable for all kinds of adults.
