Dr Arno Verweij (Invited speaker)31/03/2009, 11:45This presentation will introduce the website Proefjes.nl; the word "proefjes" literally means "little science experiments". The Dutch language website contains do-it-yourself science experiments, aiming at primary school students age 8 to 12 and their teachers. During the presentation, our approach will be discussed in the light of some materials from the website and our teacher workshops.Go to contribution page

Ms Line Brogger31/03/2009, 14:00The DTU ScienceShow has existed since 2001. The people behind are students from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), who show science in an exciting and instructive way. Our show is a mixture of both physics and chemistry. The show turn to preschool and high school students. Our purpose is to give students an understanding in what science really is about and make up the old prejudice...Go to contribution page

Mr Ivan Bazulic31/03/2009, 15:00The problem with science, and particularly physics, in Croatia is multiple, and is not easy to understand. The most notable problem is the lack of interest in public schools, and especially in high schools, about science, about the world that surrounds us. In this presentation we will give our view of the problem, and a method how to solve it. We will also talk about the possibilty of a...Go to contribution page

Mr Carlo Tognoni31/03/2009, 17:15The Volta's Electrophorus is the simplest and most ancient electrostatic machine. It works from very simple materials: a non-conductive base, a conductive disk and some wool tissue. Using this very simple equipment however you can generate static electricity seemingly without limits: it looks like a perpetuum engine. Here I will present a multimedia, available on the Web, that explains in...Go to contribution page

Mr Merlijn Van Deen01/04/2009, 09:15In the last few years, the Rino Foundation has grown considerably. This has had a big impact in terms of organization: it is no longer possible for the board to do everything needed for the shows itself. To cope with the increasing work load, while maintaining and improving both quality and size, we have made three important changes. First of all, we have a committee system where volunteers...Go to contribution page

Mr Kamil Fadel (Invited speaker)01/04/2009, 10:15The Palais de la découverte was founded in 1937 by the physics Nobel laureate Jean Perrin. The idea of Perrin was to create a science center where people could attend to lecture demonstrations "à la Faraday". Today, seventy years after its birth, it is still a very unique place with no equivalent in the world since all scientific topics are presented in detail to the public through...Go to contribution page
