Description of the Experience
I have had a tough time while I was conducting an experiment during chemistry class. The experiment involved burning a sugar cube, although it is known that it only melts. The trick to it was to add cigarette ashes so that it acts as a catalyst. After adding the ash to the sugar cube, it strated to burn in a spontaneous way just like tiny firecracker.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
