The science and engineering of materials and ceramics - Sustainable approaches. A game as a stimulus.

The importance of materials science and engineering is not always well understood by the general public. The classification of materials in metals, alloys, ceramics, glass, polymers and composites based on their composition and chemical bonding does not allow the importance of materials in technological development to be recognized. Functional classification is much more appealing, but it refers to the role of science and engineering of materials in the background.

Create a game that promotes the science and engineering of materials, highlighting the properties of materials and their applications; know the materials in a playful way; to promote materials engineering courses among primary and secondary school students.
