Description of the Experience
On a trip to the Science Museum Príncipe Felipe did a workshop in which we taught explained things very interesting science. What surprised me is that they explained the concept of pressure and performing experience.
The experience was that a student put a foot on a plastic cup invested, which quickly crushed. However repeated the experience with more plastic cups placed over a rectangular surface and when the student climbed the vessels are not crushed. A few plastic cups bore the brunt of my companion. They explained that the force will be distributed over a larger surface, so the pressure decreased and vessels are not crushed. It was interesting because I could not believe me that plastic cups are not crushed.

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.
