Students are divided into groups on a national level
They decide what Nobel Prize Winners from their own country they will work on.
They will use the official site of the Nobel Prize
https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/lists/all/
After choosing three/four people, they work together and create a timeline
The timeline includes biographical details and also information, curiosities about the Prizes.
The students have to understand the reasons for the prize very well.
Each group publishes their timeline
All the timelines are shared
National groups have to create a quiz about their own Prizes
Each country has to analyse all the timelines in order to create questions
Each country creates a quiz about their own Prizes
