There is a large literature on Women in Science that one maight use in class.

Specially when one taken into account Science, Technology and Society issues in the Science classroom, to make it closer to the pupils.

Hello,
The project name was Xperimania. The deadline for this competitions has been extended to 15 October 2011 and the topic was "the role of women in chemistry".
There was 3 competitions:
1. Portrait of a woman chemist
2. Create a campaign on women and chemistry
3. Make a poster on women and chemistry
You and your student can look at very interesting materials here:

My students also participate and was happy to learn about the role of woman in chemistry and about its scientific research.
I must thank Xperimnia for inspiring students to study science too. emoticon

And I forgot to say yesterday that a Pathway workshop has been planned in my country.

I encourage teachers in this community to check whether there is any Pathway workshop to which they may participate. They look very promising
