The School of Technology and Experimental Sciences (ESTCE) of the Universitat Jaume I has recently hosted the sixth edition of the Marcadors Awards, an annual distinction that recognises the educational work of the best upper secondary school teachers in the province of Castelló, chosen by their own former students who are now studying different university degrees at the ESTCE. This year, eight teachers have stood out for their exceptional work in motivating and training high school students in scientific-technical areas. This recognition aims to highlight the work carried out by science teachers, particularly in terms of their capacity to foster an interest in science in their students.

At the event, the director of the ESTCE, Ana Piquer, underlined the key role played by science teachers as a fundamental reference that marks the future of tomorrow's scientists. Joaquín Beltrán, Vice-Rector for Academic Organisation and Teaching Staff, stressed the importance of scientific and technical disciplines as means to respond to the needs and curiosities of society and advance towards progress.

Sergi Navarro, from the San Juan Bautista Salesian School in Borriana, spoke on behalf of the award-winning teachers and took the opportunity to express their gratitude to the students: "Our thanks go to our former students, not for your votes, but for keeping a place in your memory for us. Nothing is more important for us."

The teacher awards recognised the dedication of Judith Sancho, a Biology teacher at the Vicent Castell i Doménech Secondary School in Castelló; Gemma Ladrón de Guevara as a Physics teacher at Madre Vedruna Sagrado Corazón School in Castelló; the Physics teacher, Sergi Navarro, at San Juan Bautista Salesian School in Borriana; Rafael Albert as a teacher of Mathematics II at the l'Alcalatén Secondary School in l'Alcora; and Jaime Peñalver as a Physics teacher at the Madre Vedruna Sagrado Corazón School in Castelló; the teacher Marta Barberá, for her subject Mathematics II at the Matilde Salvador Secondary School in Castelló; Jaime Peñalver as a teacher of Technology and Engineering II at the Madre Vedruna Sagrado Corazón School in Castelló; and, at the Alfonso XIII Secondary School in Vall d'Alba, the students voted for Laia Campos for her subject Technical Drawing II and Nacho Alguacil as a Chemistry teacher.

Moreover, Betxí Secondary School received another extraordinary recognition for obtaining the highest marks in science and technology subjects during the university entrance exams. Its principal, Mari Carmen Arnau, praised the work of her teachers, who base their classes on experimentation, logical reasoning and hypothesis testing. “In times of Twitter and TikTok, it is necessary for students to be able to concentrate and gain from scientific knowledge, from trial and error, and from doubting and testing”, she said.

This ceremony honoured the exceptional dedication of these educators to high quality instruction in science and technology, thus reinforcing the path towards future societies that are better educated and more committed to scientific advancement.
