If you have any questions or inquiries, please get in touch with the relevant contact person or always contact apl. Prof. Dr. Gabriele Hornung and Junior Prof. Dr. Johann-N. Seibert
What: In this project, a teaching-learning unit is being developed in the context of "particulate matter" . Pupils and students are given experimental and model-based access to the (near) nanoscale through digital measurement and the use of augmented reality (AR). Experimental, digitally enriched modules for pupils are currently being developed. These include the programming of microcontrollers, the use of AR and the modeling of the (near) nanoscale.
Who: 9th & 10th grades of all school types
Focus: Modeling, programming, digital skills
Who to ask? Laura Leppla
What: Students experience today's experimentation: they develop their own research questions, plan controlled experiments and interpret their results - accompanied by AI-based language assistants that provide individual support. The focus is on promoting independent scientific work: discovery and research with innovative support.
Who: 8th grade students of all school types
Focus: knowledge acquisition, pioneering AI technology
Who to ask? Lisa Häßel
What: Food analysis studies guide students through the most important honey ingredients. They also explore the question of its health-promoting properties and apply simplified analysis methods in addition to sensory methods.
Who? Grades 9 and 10 of all school types
Focus: Gaining knowledge, analytical work
Who to ask? Dr. Daniela Becker
What: In the Green Energy program - the energy forms of the future - students explore the innovative field of renewable energies through exciting experiments. In cooperation with the PhysicsLAB of the physics department , they learn hands-on how wind turbines and photovoltaic systems work, how hydrogen is used to store energy and what role fuel cell technology plays.
Who? Pupils in grades 8 to 13
Focus: ideal supplement to science lessons
Who to ask? Junior Professor Dr. Johann-N. Seibert or, of course, via PhysicsLAB.
Students analyze the question: Are vapes a more sustainable alternative to cigarettes? They examine smoke and vapor for their ingredients (particulate matter, flavorings, etc.) and disassemble a vape. Critical raw materials and potential dangers will be discussed. The day offers space for discussion in the context of assessing the sustainability of vapes.
Who? Students in grades 11-13.
Focus: Gaining knowledge, evaluation skills, experimental knowledge
Who to ask? Laura Leppla
Pool-scAN offers students the opportunity to learn through research . The starting point is a fictitious criminal case that requires the use of chemical-analytical methods to solve. The students take on the role of forensic scientists anduse wet chemical analyses to examine the pool samples in order to convict the perpetrator.
Who can participate? Students in grades 11-13
Focus: research-based learning, gamification, experimental knowledge
Who to ask? Nicolas Wunn
What: Pupils experience the problem of (micro)plastic in the environment at first hand through motivating nature-based experiences in the forest coupled with an experimental setting to examine the collected waste and soil samples . Own soil samples are taken and the exposure in the forest soil is analyzed in the laboratory.
Who? Students in grades 11-13
Focus: Gaining knowledge, experimental skills, action skills
Who to ask? Dr. Daniela Becker
