EU4Algae’s Algae4Schools toolkit now features two educational resources from the Horizon Europe project iCULTURE. Teachers and outreach teams can find both the iCULTURE algae quiz and the art-science exhibition cards in the toolkit’s Learning Modules section.
Discover the Magic of Algae in Everyday Life! is a short interactive quiz for children aged 8-11. It introduces learners to the world of algae and shows where they might encounter algae in everyday life. The ready-to-use slide deck includes quiz questions in English and Italian and facilitator guidance in English.
The iCULTURE art-science cards, developed by FVA – New Media Research, were designed for an exhibition that pairs visual storytelling with accessible science. More than 20 Polaroid-style cards combine striking images with short explanations of algae’s ecological role, their industrial applications and iCULTURE’s research. Originally displayed on a fishing net, the cards can be used to create an exhibition in a classroom or at a public event. Ready-to-print PDFs are available in English and Italian, and an editable PowerPoint version allows educators and outreach teams to translate and adapt the cards for different audiences.
