Abstract
Science and technology students understand well the scientific approaches behind GM crops and the arguments for using them in cultivation and food applications.

This active learning tool uses a problem based approach and gives the students the opportunity to develop critical thinking skills regarding the ethical, political, social and legal aspects involved in the agro-food biotechnologies.
