  4. They (women) also exist One of the aims we wanted to achieve with the calendars was to show the existence of these women and to encourage the students of Secondary Compulsory Education (O-level) and Bachillerato (A-level students) to know those women and their work Al índice Carmen Jalón Ranchal.

  10. Coeducation in tutorial classes In Andalucía, the students of Secondary Education spend an hour with their tutor in which one of the topics they have to work about is Coeducation. The calendars have been a useful tool for this purpose and many Secondary Schools in our Community have used them successfully. Al índice Carmen Jalón Ranchal. CEP "Luisa Revuelta".Córdoba

  11. DIDACTIC UNIT sample Subject: Statistics 3º de E.S.O. In this unit the students start by distinguishing the different types of variables and later they learn to arrange them in tables of frequencies and study the different statistical graphs. Now, it is the moment to tell them about Florence Nightingale. Al índice Carmen Jalón Ranchal. CEP "Luisa Revuelta".Córdoba

  12. Florence Nightingale: Italia 1820 - Inglaterra 1910 Very well-known as a nurse, few persons know about either her statistical facet, or that she was the one that designed the graph of sectors. She supported the setting up of the Applied Statistics College. Her graphs and studies made the British Government realize that the lack of cares and hygiene in campaign hospitals was the main reason for the death of soldiers in the Crimea War. Al índice Carmen Jalón Ranchal. CEP "Luisa Revuelta".Córdoba

  13. Let’s see Nightingale's graph, which represents the mortality during the war of Crimea. Every sector has a colored area proportional to the information represented. The part colored in greenish blue, represents the deaths that could have been avoided or mitigated, such as those deaths caused by cholera or typhus. The yellow ones show the deaths caused by wounds of war. The central parts show the deaths caused by any other reasons. Al índice Carmen Jalón Ranchal. CEP "Luisa Revuelta".Córdoba

  14. CONCLUSION The most important achievement accomplished has been the evolution in the students’ perception of the calendars in the course of the years. The Calendars started as an object the teacher pinned-up on the classroom wall, and, little by little, the calendars have become a positive element appreciated by students: • Groups that don’t have it, demand it. • It is used as a decorative element in the contest “La clase más limpia” (The tidiest classroom), whereas other calendars are thrown away ours remains in the classroom. • The students ask their teachers questions about the “woman of the month”.

  15. Finally, I would like to stress the fact that these women’s biographies are in display all the days of the whole school year, that, it is not compulsory to study them. This is why students tend to assimilate the existence of women in all the fields of Science as something natural. This natural way in which the calendars are shown, I think, is the first step to create a co-educative atmosphere in the Maths classes and, maybe, to create mathematics vocations among the girls.
