TORINO, ITALY
In the morning the school students (more than 1000) visited different classrooms hosting science related events presented by students as well; in the afternoon the school and the events were opened to the public. In one classroom half of the panels of the exhibition were exposed and volunteers explained the basic number theory behind the work of the potrayed mathematician Kaisa Matomäki (following the ideas presented in her interview). In a nearby classroom the rest of the potraits were exposed and volunteers gave an oral and slide presentation on the issue of gender equality in mathematics. In the following days a rehersal of these two different presentations took place during a mathematics class.
Special thanks to professors: Laura Chiusano, Annalisa Gratteri; students: Bianca Aschieri, Giovanni Aschieri, Letizia Barba, Matteo Berga, Thomas Mizzon, Gianna Oberto, Eugenia Olmi, Thomas Mizzon.http://www.liceogalfer.it/pvw/app/TOLS0005/pvw_sito.php
