From the Lab to the Classroom

Workshops

Professors-i-CienciaICIQ provides secondary school teachers in Catalonia with the opportunity to participate in specialized courses or workshops. We want to bring teachers into a research lab for training workshops easily transferable to the classroom. Our workshops are designed to provide teachers with educational material and assistance to bridge the gap between research and schools.

  • Com separem un conservant d’aliments d’un sedant?
  • La llum com a font d’energia
  •  Síntesi de l’aspirina

All workshops combine theory and laboratory practices. To learn more about our workshops, please contact Dr. Laura Hernández, responsible for ICIQ’s outreach activities.

 

Professors i Ciència

Teachers and Science is a Catalunya-La Pedrera Foundation programme that offers secondary teachers of high schools in Catalunya the opportunity to participate in specialised workshops delivered by researchers at different research centers in Catalunya.

ICIQ offers the workshop entitled “Catalysis in the classroom.” The purpose of this 10-hour long workshop is to train teachers on this subject so they can transfer what they have learnt and experimented on catalysis to their students.
