THE BIOTECHNOLOGY GAME: BIOTECH-GAME

The Biotech-Game is an activity that brings biotechnology and its applications closer to society, and encourages scientific careers among children and youngsters. It is an instructive, stimulating, entertaining and principally educational game.

The game can accommodate both the number of participants and their level of knowledge. This flexibility allows for game development to take place in different scenarios (museums, science fairs, exhibitions, etc) and over a very wide social and geographical scope.

The Biotech-Game is a "guided-game" on a floor-panel-board that can be played in groups and where a group member acts as a tab on the floor panel. As players carry on with the game, and according to the square they find themselves in, questions must be answered or experiments must be carried out related to biotechnology. It is practical experience that has the suitable theoretical and experimental background, similar to that performed under real laboratory conditions, for knowledge development, which enhances its educational goal.

The biotechnology game has an educational purpose and is principally based on two basic teaching tools: play and experience.
