The game consists in the recognition of photos of both female and male figures that have had relevance in the study and in the discoveries of STEAM subjects

TYPE OF THE ACTIVITY:

Game

DURATION:

45 minutes

TEACHING AID:

Computers, tablets or smartphones. Internet connection.

TEACHING PRACTICE (STEP BY STEP):

The game consists in seeing the slide (n.2) where there are photos of some famous women for their research or inventions in STEAM subjects.

Students should try to recognize as many of them as possible. In the next slide (n.3) they will find all the names to be associated with the images. Names that are not associated with any image can later be searched on internet.

The same work is required for the second group of images, the male ones (slide n. 5), followed by the names to be associated (slide n.6).

In all likelihood there will be more male than female names known, the teacher can start a brainstorming and then a debate on the reasons for this difference
