THE TEACHERS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BURGOS PRESENTED THE COMMUNICATION “THE CHEMISTRY BEYOND WHAT ONE SEES WITH EYES: A SET OF LABORATORY PRACTICES” AT THE 12th ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (ICERI2019)

Ana Herrero and Susana Palmero presented a virtual communication at ICERI2019, an international education conference held in Sevilla (Spain) on the 11th, 12th and 13th of November, 2019. This communication presented an inclusive chemistry workshop held in July 2019 in the Faculty of Science of the University of Burgos. Twenty students, without and with disabilities, have participated in the workshop “The Chemistry that cannot be seen” that was part of the “Inclusive campus, campus with no limits (2019)”, organized by the public universities of Castilla y León. In this activity, students have completed chemical experiments where the senses of smell, hearing or touch are specially engaged. Different chemical reactions, which are visually observed but that can also be felt with hands, smelled or heard, were explored. Some properties of matter and concepts such as solubility, reactivity…, were addressed through the experiences. The activity also served to sensitize students without disabilities to the needs of students who are disabled. The workshop included simple and low-cost experiments that students could do at home. In addition, in the framework of the Erasmus+ project “Oenoculture: Start of European enology. Prephyloxeric European grapes”, it included some experiments with wine, to bring these students closer to the world of wine and oenoculture.
