Convert science content into an infographic Flexible
modality: online and face-to-face.
Participants:The activity can be
done individually, in pairs or in
groups of three students.

Students have to read a text (it could be a scientific paper or a piece of science news) and express
the main ideas using an infographic. Afterwards, they explain the content to their colleagues.

Key learning objectives Resources
To understand a piece of science Computer
news and be able to explain it.
To organise ideas and discuss APPs or online software
them in public. programmes like canva.com,
PowToons, Genial.ly

Possible adaptations
Each group could be assigned one topic and assess whether there are
changes in knowledge, perception, trust and beliefs or not depending on
their role, if they have read the content and later explained to the students
or if they have just listened to the explanation of their classmates.

All groups could have the same science content so the different portrayals
on the issue can also be discuss in class.

Students could also, instead of creating and image, record a piece of
news for TV.
