xperimania: From molecules to materials

European Schoolnet and the Association of Petrochemicals Producers in Europe (Appe) are launching an ambitious new project to raise awareness of petrochemistry among young people across Europe. The project - Xperimania - proposes attractive inquiry-based science teaching and learning activities for upper primary and secondary schools.

Through the project, students will gain knowledge of petrochemical discoveries, processes and products. The campaign includes a competition for teams of young people around Europe, to set up an easy and fun experiment and upload lab reports on the website. Winning students will be invited to a ceremony taking place in the Benelux region during 2008, at a research laboratory of one of the Appe member companies.
