We suggest teachers to use this cards to gamify the classroom.
With the www.hearthcards.net application, we have drawn up a series of reward cards to improve the way people live together in the classroom. Every time they did an activity related to the eTwinning project they got 10, 20 and 50 ecoTwinn tickets. These cards contain images of Marie Curie and her family and also of other women scientists (taken from wikimedia creative commons). In this way we were making the figure of women in science visible. We presented them at the same time as they appeared in the project.
How much does each card cost?
Card: Irene Joliot Curie 50 ecoTwinn
Card: Marie Curie family 70 ecoTwinn
Card: Pierre and Marie Curie 50 ecoTwinn
Card: Ada Lovelace 250 ecoTwinn
Card: Jane Goodall 100 ecoTwinn
Card: Hypatia 100 ecoTwinn
Card: Marie Curie laboratory 100 ecoTwinn
Card: Marie Skłodowska Curie 150 ecoTwinn
Card: Katherine Johnson 100 ecoTwinn
Card: Marie Curie and Irène 150 ecoTwinn
Card: Valentina Tereshkova 150 ecoTwinn
We have used the project's gamma cards throughout the course, in the activities related to eTwinning and the ecogarden, and it has been very motivating for the students as they got to know relevant scientists and the Curie family.
