Description
To increase young people engagement in synchrotron visits, we have developped : SOLEIL’s Game. The goal : transforming a traditional visit into an interactive scientific treasure hunt. Participants work in teams to solve puzzles that explore light–matter interactions to identify the most suitable technics and beamlines to analyse real research samples. By combining hands-on experiments, quizzes, and investigative challenges, the game encourages collaboration, problem-solving, and active learning. This format not only demystifies cutting-edge techniques but also immerses participants in the process of scientific discovery, offering a playful yet meaningful approach to engaging new audiences with complex research facilities.
