Published: 26/04/2015
The first Write a Science Opera (WASO) workshop in Italy was realized at the Theatre of Villa Torlonia in Rome, on March 5th, 2015. The workshop was led by Dr. Cinzia Belmonte and Mrs. Giovanna Conforte (Formascienza, Italy) and Associate Professor Oded Ben-Horin (Stord Haugesund University College, Norway). During the workshop, a group of approximately 25 teachers, scientists, and culture and arts professionals explored various scientific themes, mainly from the areas of astronomy, physics and chemistry, through creative exercises. The workshop started with a warm-up, continued with a presentation of the CREAT-IT concept, had its main focus on creation of the scenarios, and ended with a short discussion about possible future collaborations with members of the group.
