Resumen

Although the concept of mineral genesis is a very important one in the Earth Science field and,more especially in Geology, the students usually have quite a lot of doubts about it. The dramatization of the mineral genesis processes is considered as an educational resource suitable to learnthis topic. In this line, it is suggested the students to play a brief piece of theatre. On the one hand,the pupils would act as both the molecules and the particles that take part in the physical processes and chemical reactions. On the other hand, the teacher would be the director who tries to keepa relationship between what is happening in the scene and the molecular- kinetic theory. According to our previous experiences, this didactic method works properly with high school students,but we have not tried its possible benefits in people attending other type of courses.
