MOUSETRAP RACE è una gara internazionale per vetture di piccole dimensioni alimentate esclusivamente da un meccanismo simile a quello delle trappole per topi. Le piccole auto da corsa spinte dal meccanismo delle trappole per topi, sono poco
conosciute in Europa, ma vengono invece utilizzate in alcune scuole superiori americane
per permettere agli studenti di applicare le proprie conoscenze di fisica.

BEST LESSON
The Best Lesson Video Contest invites science students to demonstrate their best lesson on video. Great teachers inspire students to pursue a higher education in science and engineering. They communicate difficult concepts with ease. And they make science fun. Are you a great teacher? Can you explain the laws of physics and link them to the design and construction of a mouse trap car so that students really get it? Wouldn’t it be great to share those lessons with us? Well, here is your chance. Simply have your students shoot a video, reproducing one of your lessons and submit it to the Monaco Mouse Trap Car Grand Prix. Winning entries will be shown on the Monaco Mouse Trap Car Grand Prix Web Site and at the Gala Dinner of the event and will receive a cash prize to spend on scientific equipment for the school!
