A powerful tool with wheels, minerals and fun!

Keeping students motivated is a huge challenge for teachers. In some topics, such as the study of minerals, it’s hard to attract their attention. They aren’t used to seeing minerals in their natural form or are oblivious to their many applications in our daily life. To tackle this challenge, researchers from the European project “The Briefcase of Minerals Applications” designed a powerful outreach tool that puts together minerals and everyday products made from minerals, and turned everything into a gamified experience. We were thrilled to be able to shoot how it works and provide the consortium with an online dissemination tool that would help bring teachers onboard!
