VISIT

(120 minutes)

The operator introduces the experiments and the most significant stations, then invites students to engage in free exploration, allowing them to experiment independently while sharing the experience with their peers.

All about Energy
collaborative workshop – all 5 grades of school
Forms of energy and their transformations. Hands-on experimentation with the main sources of renewable energy.

Electrochemistry
collaborative workshop – all 5 grades of school
Batteries, hydrogen engines, even synapses in our brains: experiments and demonstrations to discover how a chemical reaction can produce electricity and vice versa.

Currents and Magnets
collaborative workshop – last 3 grades of school
Students explore electromagnetism through experiments with generators, transformers, and other electrical devices, discovering the physical laws that govern their operation.

Energy and Strategies
discussion game – all 5 grades of school
Why do we make so little use of geothermal energy? What about the energy from lightning? What happens if we continue to build more and more data centres? Challenges, experiments, and choices to make in designing our future.

Io(T) Robot
discussion game – all 5 grades of school
Can we tell the difference between real images and those generated by AI? Will robots really replace human workers? Through a game involving cards, dice, and strategic decisions, students explore the challenges and dilemmas linked to the use of artificial intelligence.

SOS: Mutation in Progress
collaborative workshop – all 5 grades of school
The genetic code contains the instructions necessary for our body to function, but what happens when it changes, even slightly? Let’s explore mutations and genetic engineering, experimenting with ways to modify, enhance, or inhibit specific biological processes.

Old Atoms, New Molecules
collaborative workshop – all 5 grades of school
From natural to synthetic, from glucose to plastic polymers: through practical experiments let’s see how chemical elements can arrange themselves differently in order to create innovative and high-performing materials.

The Story of Everything
collaborative workshop – last 3 grades of school
What is the Universe made of? What is its history? How can we study something so big and “invisible”? Models and experiments help us explore it, through the most important hypotheses and discoveries. We will also review the scientists who played a key role.

Accelerated Particles
collaborative workshop – last 3 grades of school
We are surrounded by elementary particles: what are their properties? Let’s explore of the laws of physics and particle accelerators.
