Kunt u een ei vanaf een hoogte van 2 meter laten vallen zonder dat het breekt? Een Franse organisatie genaamd Zelf aan de slag<\/i>\u2018 heeft vorige maand scholen wereldwijd uitgedaagd om deel te nemen aan een eiervalwedstrijd.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Basisscholen uit Brazili\u00eb, Chili, Colombia, Frankrijk, Marokko, Servi\u00eb en Spanje gingen de uitdaging aan. Op 4 november 'ontmoetten' ze elkaar via internet om samen hun experimenten uit te proberen.<\/p>\n

De kinderen, tussen negen en elf jaar oud, moesten het ei tijdens de val beschermen en zachtjes laten landen in de buurt van het aangegeven doel. Daarvoor kregen ze allemaal hetzelfde materiaal:<\/p>\n

    Elke school kreeg twee minuten voor de presentatie en dertig minuten om alles op te bouwen. Nadat elk team zijn ei had laten vallen, had het \u00e9\u00e9n minuut om de resultaten te presenteren.<\/p>\n

    De jury van ESA en de Espace des Sciences de Paris loofde prijzen uit voor het meest geslaagde experiment, de origineelste oplossing, de snelste afdaling waarbij het ei nog heel bleef, de nauwkeurigste landing en de beste beschrijving van het experiment.<\/p>\n

    Zowel winnaars als verliezers vonden het heel leuk om mee te doen en via internet samen te werken met scholen over de hele wereld.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
