Teaching particle technology

Teaching particle technology at the “School of industrial rheology” (Valeggio sul Mincio, 10-14 September 2023)

In teaching particle technology, we cover the basics like understanding what particles are, how they’re made, and how we can change them to suit different needs. We explore various types of particles and how they interact with each other, considering factors like their size, shape, and surface area. Students also get hands-on experience with tools and methods for studying and controlling particles.

But what sets our teaching apart is how we connect it with ongoing research. We don’t just teach from textbooks; we bring the excitement of real-world experiments and discoveries into the classroom. By blending practical lab work with the latest findings from the field, we create an engaging learning environment where students get a taste of what it’s like to be at the forefront of particle technology.

In our lessons, students don’t just memorize facts; they grapple with cutting-edge ideas that challenge their thinking and expand their understanding. Our educators draw from their own experiences in both research and teaching to provide students with a rich, dynamic learning experience that prepares them for the complex world of particle technology.
