Description of the initiative
ScienzaPerTutti is a website and a publishing program. The community of researchers of the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) is working on this project to make science and technology accessible to all. All contents of this site are developed in Italian by experts in the field and enriched by insights hypertext. It addresses an audience of high school students and enthusiasts about science. In addition, in order to present the latest research and discoveries of the past, it attempts to answer questions involving experts.
More Information
The educational range of this initiative is extremely efficient. The collaboration of INFN is a guarantee of the scientific content’s reliability.
The disciplinary areas extended from earth science to mathematics, from chemistry to physics. Scienza per tutti [Science for all] is also a publishing project and offers educational paths (http://scienzapertutti.lnf.infn.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=667&Itemid=5) very interesting for teachers and students.
Very substantial is also the video section (http://scienzapertutti.lnf.infn.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=696&Itemid=570) that makes available out-and-out multimedia lessons by INFN scientists.
In Risorse [Resources] section, a deepening part “Per saperne di più” [For further information] procures many spurts for lessons integrations and for the chemistry’s knowledge experience, (http://scienzapertutti.lnf.infn.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=782%3Ai-gas-nobili&Itemid=395), earth science’s knowledge experience (http://scienzapertutti.lnf.infn.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=802%3Alatmosfera-dalla-troposfera-allesosfera&Itemid=395), physics’ knowledge experience (http://scienzapertutti.lnf.infn.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=630:riflessione-e-rifrazione&catid=266&Itemid=395:riflessione-e-rifrazone) and in many other scientific sectors.
Teachers’ Opinion
The collaboration of INFN is a guarantee of the scientific content’s reliability.
The website covers several disciplinary areas: from earth science to mathematics, from chemistry to physics. The major and most interesting part of materials are on physics and astrophysics, while chemistry contents are unfortunately very few. Anyway the site is interesting both for students and teachers of secondary school, especially for teaching natural sciences, earth sciences. maths and physics, less for chemistry. From a didactical point of view the website offers high level videos of great interest and useful educational paths.
Students’ Opinion
The students quite appreciated this website. They can find a lot of information about different subjects from physics to maths, hearth sciences and also chemistry, even if the majority of the materials are on physics, as the partner of the website developers is INFN. Chemistry contents are unfortunately very few.
Almost all the students appreciated the navigability and the design of the web site. They also liked the videos that they found interesting and amusing. Something could be improved.

The website provides many opportunities to deepen the studies. Offering different options for navigation, it stimulate a student lerning process. The website is useful for those interested in the study of Science and in Science innovations. As regarding the educational us, it is a good support for teachers indeed:it allows to stimulate the students’ curiosity through intriguing and appealing news.
It is a little poor in the laboratory section but the purpose of the site is to be academical and not practical. Excellent the school section in which you can even publish some materials.

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.
