| Report on the Results: |
The two presentations (an hour long, each one) were really fun, the first one had as public children who were 9 and 10 years old; and the second one had as public children who were 12 years old. Basically it was a powerpoint presentation with images and also a speech, with time for interruptions during the talk. So they made lots of questions about the history of space exploration, and also about the present of this field. Teachers were amazed of how this subject can be an excellent way to promote curiosity on children. |
