Skill 3.8 Scientific Foldover Game
Produced by Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme, this activity is based on the foldover game, where one person draws a head, folds the paper, the next draws a body and so on. The variation is that this exercise is based around the amount remembered after reading a paper from a scientific journal. On each paper fold, students write what they have remembered from specified sections of the paper, such as the abstract, introduction, methods or conclusions. This helps students to extract information and record it in a well-organised manner.
