SCIENCE IN CONTEXT

We remind you that next October 22 at the IEC headquarters and on October 23 and 24 at the CosmoCaixa headquarters, the 6th Conference on the teaching of physics and chemistry will take place.

Its aim is to promote science in context and to provide teaching resources for contextualized teaching of science from contexts such as light, sea, greenhouse effect, volcanoes, food, forensic science, chemical reactions , etc. There will be lectures and workshops, and faculty will be able to present oral or poster presentations on science experiences (physics, chemistry, biology and geology).
